May 30, 2010: Vancouver Motorcycle Ride to Live

Sunday, May 30th dawned a little grey and cool for the end of May, but the rains of Saturday had ended and the air was clean and roads were clear.  The great folks at the Ride to Live organized a wonderful event starting with the closure of Boundary Road outisde the Trev Deeley dealership to start the ride.

09:30 kicked off the ride from Boundary Road to Port Moody escorted by the Vancouver Police motorcycle squad.  600 riders enjoyed a great day of riding, a wonderful bbq at Sasquatch Park and a round trip to Cloverdale Racetrack.  The afternoon stayed cloudy and cool, but dry for the most part until around 3:30pm.  While the rain put a damper on some of the festivities at Richmond Honda, the crowd remained enthusiastic and I think everyone enjoyed the day completely.

The ride was attended by 600 riders, passengers and others (dogs, and even a rabbit!) and raised $160,000.00 for the BC Prostate Cancer Foundation.

Congratulations to all of the participants and THANK YOU to the organizers, volunteers and Ride to Live executive team who worked so hard to put on this event.

See you next year!
