Days before thousands of bikers take part in an epic ride-out from London to Barrow, the final details for the second Dave Day been revealed.

Taking place on Saturday 21st June, Dave Day is the second charity motorcycle ride honouring late Hairy Biker Dave Myers, and it once again starts at the Ace Cafe in North London at 7am and ends in his hometown of Barrow-in-Furness at around 3pm.

It’s now been confirmed that the M6 Toll fee of £5 will be waived for bikers on the ride up to Barrow, thanks to the M6toll Team.

Once in Barrow, a food court will be located near the Town Hall with a wide variety of local vendors, several who have worked with Dave on various projects. There is also a huge variety of local eating and drinking establishments throughout Barrow town centre and the surrounding area.

The weather forecast looks very favourable to enjoy the motorbike ride and all the events in Barrow town centre to celebrate Dave Day.
