2017 BONE-shaker MARROW-thon

BIKERS are urged to don their leathers for a fourth consecutive year to help raise money for blood cancer charities.

The BONE-shaker MARROW-thon charity ride between Birmingham and Burton on Trent started life in 2014 after the organiser beat an aggressive form of leukaemia. Since 2014, organiser Katherine Sinfield has gone from strength to strength and the BONE-shaker MARROW-thon has helped to raise thousands of pounds, which is equally split between Cure Leukaemia, Anthony Nolan and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. 

This year’s charity ride is planned for Sunday May 21st, with bikers making the run from the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham to the National Brewery Centre in Burton on Trent. The 35-mile route includes a rest break at the popular bikers’ meeting point of Bassetts Pole, to cater for learner riders and those not keen on travelling through Birmingham.

Organiser Katherine Sinfield (age 36) said: “Over the years we have managed to establish a great reputation for the ride which has always run to schedule without any hassle. It’s this reputation which means more than 100 bikers regularly turn-out year after year to support the BONE-shaker MARROW-thon.

“While the first ride in 2014 suffered monsoon weather conditions, every year since we have had stunning sunshine and moving the ride to May this year will hopefully guarantee a great day weather-wise. “Our choice to finish again at the home of beer at the National Brewery Centre is also a great draw for many as there’s always a great selection of food – and beer – on offer.

“I was speaking to a biker recently who was worried the ride might clash with his holiday to Devon, but he assured me he would be willing to make the four-hour trip back just for us as the ride is such a great day out.
“We’re also thrilled to retain the support of local students from Burton and South Derbyshire College, who will be pounding the pavements with their collection buckets during the ride.”

Bikers are urged to arrive at the roof top car park at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham (postcode B15 2TH) at around 10.15am, ready for a prompt 11am departure. The ride is fully marshalled and usually arrives at the National Brewery Centre in Burton by 12.30pm. The cost of the ride is £5, with wristbands offered on the day. All funds from the ride are split equally between the three charities. As the route uses a small section of the Aston Expressway in Birmingham, which is classed as a motorway, learner riders should meet at the McDonald’s Restaurant at Bassetts Pole at 11am (postcode B75 5SA).
