Memory Rory Smith

18th April 2025 Leave a Comment

Greg Johnson – “Well folks it’s nearly that time of year for our annual ride out on Easter Sunday 20th of April 2025 in memory of our great friend Rory Smith.

This year we are fund raising for 2 more charity’s they are for the injured riders injuries fund and we are doing this in memory of our falling rider Alan Connor.

We are also donating to Slane Red Cross who do loads of charity work for our local community.

As usual there will be free refreshments available after the run. We are also having a Rock band playing that night called the INFIDELS who are brilliant.

Starting at Dolly’s Bar on the Slane Drogheda Road sign on from 10am departure at 11am 11.30.

Hope to see a good turn out on the day and thanks to All who have supported us over the years.”
