RESIDENTS will experience the sweet sounds and sights of scores of motorbikes riding into Point Cook next month.
As many as 1500 bikers will converge on the town centre on October 24 as part of the Pink Ribbon Ride.
The ride, which has already attracted interest from bike enthusiasts across the state, will raise more than $30,000 for the Cancer Council of Victoria for breast cancer research.
Point Cook Motorcycle Club secretary Marcel Gomperts is organising this year's event and said riders would travel from at least fifteen locations across Victoria, including Bendigo , Moe, Shepparton and Ballarat.
"Every rider pays $20 to enter and it all goes to the Cancer Council Victoria. We'll also raise money through donations and a raffle," he said.
Riders of all ages will arrive in groups at The Brook on Sneydes, Point Cook at about 11am to be greeted by a festival set including live music, motorcycle traders and other entertainment for adults and children.
Mr Gomperts, who has been riding motorbikes for most of his life, said the ride was the perfect way to combine a popular passion - motorcycling - with raising money for a good cause. "The Point Cook Motorcycle Club is a touring and riding club. We're in our early stages we organise rides to festivals, down the Great Ocean Road. and anywhere members would like to go.

There's a lot of talk in the Australian media about bikie's, and the demonising of them....just because the behaviour of a few who happen to ride bikes.But this is Australia, we are not racist (nor should we be). We look beyond the colour of a man's skin, and recognise him for his heart and his deeds. So why do we assume that all people who ride bikes, or are part of a bike club, are criminals? Don't be fooled, this is not an issue about bikers - this is about what's in your heart. Is it the fear of others --- that horrible seed planted by others, to make you afraid? Or is it compassion, and the ability to see beyond the outer layer? What this comes down to - Are you a slave, or a free man? Free to form your own opinions, and control your own thoughts, or do you allow yourself be controlled by the agenda of others? You can decide to be free, or accept others agenda, but you can't have both. So ask yourself. "What's in my heart?" |
