The Egg Run took place on the 17 March
2002 . The Egg Run is a charitable event providing Easter Eggs and
other gifts to children who are unfortunate and in hospital
over the Easter period.
The Event is organised by local motorcycle enthusiasts. Motorcyclists
from
all over the UK, meet on the New Brighton promenade (kings Parade) from
the
early hours . Then at 11.00 am, flanked by Police motorcyclists, the
large
convoy of 2 and 3 wheel vehicles are escorted throughout the Wirral.
The
convoy takes up to 50 minutes to pass, bringing out crowds of
supporters
to line the route. On this run, over 60 members of the Police Force and
200
marshals ensured the safety of all present at the event. At the
time
of writing this page (19 March 2002) it was reported that over
£10k
had been collected for the local children.
