Message from KillSpills team leader, Stephen Edwards:
We are only two weeks away from the third annual KillSpills Rally on the 9th September.
The first rally attracted 750 bikers, last year we had 2,500 bikes (and that was in the rain), lets make it 4,000 bikes this year.
The rally runs from the Ace Café London to Westminster. I know it’s a long way away, but it is a really fantastic day.
After our first rally, Government were silent, they thought if they ignored us we would go away. Within a month of last years rally, and having taken 2,500 bikes through central London, KillSpills was invited to a meeting at the DfT. Since then, I have been to more meetings with them, and have another scheduled for the day before the rally.
Government are listening to us bikers, which is absolutely fantastic.
Visit http://www.killspills.org.uk and follow the link to the forum to arrange a rideout to the event, or see if one is already planned.
Are YOU fed up with diesel spills?
Do YOU want to take part in the largest motorcycle road safety rally London has ever seen?
Do YOU want to win £900 of riding kit? Yes?
THEN COME AND JOIN THE KILLSPILLS RUN – IT’S SERIOUS FUN!
9th September 2006 Ace Cafe London
The KillSpills Rally is designed to be a fun filled day, delivering an important road safety message to Government. All junctions are closed by the Metropolitan Police BikeSafe London Team to provide an uninterrupted ride from the Ace Cafe to Westminster and back. We ride past Buckingham Palace, the Mall, Trafalgar Square and park in front of Parliament. Wave at the public and when parked up, tell them how great biking is and what the run is all about.
The aim of the KillSpills Campaign is to show the Government, industry and general public the dangers diesel spills represent, whilst promoting motorcycling as a safe and responsible form of transport.
Sign the KillSpills Anniversary Card which will be handed into Number 10, which will be on the BMF stand.
