Additionally, entrants in the ‘ride outs’ will be given the opportunity to raise much needed money for Mencap, a charity that is devoted to learning disabilities; Mencap is the nominated charity for the Road Rally.
Byrne commented that the Express Insurance National Road Rally is a huge celebration of biking that allows the participants to get in on the camaraderie and ride on routes that they have not ridden on in the past. Byrne also mentioned that he felt the Rally was an excellent and worthy charity link and that he was looking forward to getting acquainted with fellow bikers and motorcycle fans during the weekend.
Tony Way of Express Insurance stated that it was great to have Shane ‘Shakey’ Byrne on board for the Road Rally and that Byrne was a huge name in motorcycle racing and that he was sure that his participation in the Rally would encourage others to take part as well.
