ROC - Riders of Charity

ROC - Riders of Charity Motorbike Rides for Charity Riders of Charity (ROC) was founded in 2019 following the death of my mother from Alzheimer's disease.

I felt I needed to help raise money for the charity Alzheimer's Society and play my part in helping to fund research into better treatments and maybe one day a cure. In 2021 ROC embarked on our maiden voyage, a 3000 mile ride from Land's End to John O'Groats that took in the most twisty and challenging roads I could find. In 2021 our chosen charities were Alzheimer's Society and Mind UK, all money

raised would be split equally between them. Despite being our first adventure and having not built up a huge following yet, we raised £8826. In 2022 we rode the Wild Atlantic Way, raising £7550!

2023 was a 'Down-Year', with rides in the Brecon Beacons, Peak District, York and Devon & Cornwall
Raising £2500

ROC start a new campaign every year and raise money by organising a few small ride outs and one BIG adventure. It is open to all bikers and all we ask is that you donate to the cause if you join. Our 2024 campaign is raising money for;
Mental Health Motorbike - https://mhmotorbike.com/
& Alzheimer's Society - https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/
R.N.L.I (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) https://rnli.org/

Some people bring the sunshine to your life, others being the whole sun!
Our beloved Wiggles has ridden ahead of us, I’m sure all ROCers look forward to the day we get the chance to catch him up on heavens highways.
Until that day, cover those angels in tyre smoke and road dust.
Ride in peace Adam.

Thank you to every single human that gave their time to contribute to ROC. Something we can be proud of well into our rocking chair days. I am not done yet though, just not sure what my next project will be.

ROCers' 'Grid Iron' & 'The Energy'

I am sure the other ROCers will not be upset if I call these two awesome humans 'ROC Royalty'. Two of the most loved members of our core group, each have given so much over the years to our charity ambitions. Nick & Lynette organised and led our final gathering, giving us all another thrilling ride-out in Yorkshire!

ROCer 'Good Call' Foster.

Paul was invited by ROCers 'Sparkles' and 'Face-palm' to join this ride, it was indeed a 'Good Call'. Top bloke, top rider. Shame to have not met Paul sooner.

Thanks for joining us dude!

ROCer 'The Doctor' Morris

A highly valued member of the pack, he has his own personal connections to Alzheimer's and a strong dedication to our fundraising ambitions. Always full of enthusiasm and wears a smile while riding that is reminiscent of a kid riding that BMX for the first time! I am always thrilled when I see The Doctor is in the house!

ROCer 'Bubbles' Rickett

Kizzy has been a HUGE asset to ROC over the years. With a personality that gravitates strangers to her like planets orbiting the sun, making donations inevitable!

If she is not dancing, singing, smiling or flirting, then she is most likely asleep!

ROCer 'Northern'

His first time was our final time, but his charm and friendly nature tells me he would have fitted with our core group nicely,
