An annual charity motorcycle ride, attracting more than 200 bikers, is set to raise substantial funds for Ipswich Hospital's cancer services.
Founder Richard Collins, inspired to action after his brother's 2020 death from a brain tumour, stated this year's proceeds will benefit the Woolverstone ward at Ipswich Hospital.
The event begins at the lorry park at Beacon Hill services in Needham Market, with bikers making their way to Bildeston Chamberlin Hall for refreshments before heading to the Lindsey Rose pub in Hadleigh.
An auction, a raffle, live music and a barbeque will round out the day's festivities.

In recent years, the successful event has grown increasingly popular, drawing in more riders and generating impressive donations.
With great enthusiasm, Mr Collins' expressed optimism that this year’s charity ride, taking place on Sunday, August 4, will be a record-breaker.
His charitable endeavour was recently featured on BBC Radio Suffolk, widening awareness of the event.
Mr Collins encourages the community to get involved, whether through participation in the ride, donating raffle prizes or simply cheering on the riders and enjoying the day.
