We are pleased to announce that on June 15th 2008, the first East Anglian Air Ambulance Charity Motorcycle Run supported by Copdock Classic Motorcycle Club will take place.

Starting from Washbrook Service Station at Copdock, the bikes will depart at about 11am on route to RAF Honington the home of the Suffolk Air Ambulance. On arrival riders will be able to park up and enjoy watching a 2 lane ¼ mile sprint featuring classic and modern sprint machinery.

Also we will be celebrating a special achievement! 40 years ago this year Alf Hagon blasted down the Honington runway to record the UK’s first 200+mph speed (206mph). Alf will be guest of honour on the day and will be bringing along the mighty 1260cc v-twin JAP for all to see.

To celebrate there will be several specialist 200mph machines on hand to try and re-create Alf’s achievement. Running the length of the main runway you will see if these guys can emulate or better Alf’s 40-year old course record!

Everybody is welcome to take part on the run, but if you wish to go onto RAF Honington and enjoy the Sprint event and the usual end of run facilities YOU MUST pre register. Cost is £5.00 per person. Remember this is all for a great charity and lets make it a brilliant day out.

So - download the registration form from HERE and sign up for the cost of less than 2 pints of ale. You’ll get a great run, see a great days racing, in a fantastic setting courtesy of the MOD.

Profits from the day will be donated to The East Anglian Air Ambulance.
