Story

Colin’s daughter, Hannah, has been attending Yorkhill Children’s Hospital in Glasgow since she was about four months old due to kidney complications and the efforts of the staff and facilities have been phenomenal and much appreciated. Wanting to give something back he has decided to undertake a charity ride to raise funds for this worthwhile foundation.

From the 24th to the 30th of May 2010, Colin Gallacher and Ross Pollock will be riding around the perimeter of Scotland on their BMW R1200 GS Adventure and F800 ST respectively, in an effort to raise money for Yorkhill Children’s Foundation. The ride will begin from Yorkhill and will then proceed around Scotland including stops at the following hospitals/paediatric units: Royal Hospital for Sick Children, Edinburgh; Tayside Children’s Hospital, Dundee; Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital, Aberdeen and the Paediatric Unit in Inverness.

This is for a great cause and we're happy for anything you can donate.
