Today was the 4th Annual 'Ride for Daniel' Charity ride here in QLD.
Over 7000 bikes rode a 110km route on the Sunshine Coast and paid $10 a rider to honour Daniel who went missing 4 years ago, and raise money for child safety and protection.
The procession of bikes went for a continuous 20kms!!!
What a fantastic day!

There are really only two questions in life. 1.Which way do i go? 2.What is the lap record?

Thanks Brendan- it was a great day. Seeing 7000 bikes all in one carpark, and listening to Daniels mum and dad speak brought tears to my eyes. Their boy just disappeared one day never to be seen from again- presumably abducted.
The procession of bikes down the higway was incredible- people were lining the streets cheering and waving as a 20km road-train of bikes passed by.
Very inspiring!

It was a good day for a sad reason, I had held off on previous years because of the huge numbers but when I heard (and was correct) that a lot of planning had gone into this one to help that I went along.
