ABOUT 100 motorcycle riders will join a weekend cavalcade of Suzuki fans supporting Acorns Children's Hospice.

Support for the Suzuki Owners' Run has mushroomed since 55 riders completed their first ride to visit children at the hospice sites in Bath Road, Worcester, and Selly Oak last year.

They will meet at 10am on Sunday at Johnsons Control car park, North Moons Moat, Redditch, arriving at Selly Oak via Worcester at 2pm, to draw the winners of a raffle to raise funds for caring for life-limited children.

Adrian Jones, organiser, said: "It's a day for the children, who love seeing the bikes, and we get a lot of pleasure from it.

"Bikes of all sizes are welcome, including mopeds and scooters. It's our way of publicising Acorns and the great work they do."

The bikers have collected 90 prizes for a series of Acorns raffles, including car valet, valued at £120, watches, and a £60 package to restore scratches on bikes. Anyone who can support the event is asked to e-mail adrian jones850@hotmail.com
