Fans of the legendary Harley-Davidson brand are being offered the chance to get up close to the motorbikes, at a special event in Hexham on the 23rd of September.

 

A group of Harley riders went on tour last year, raising £10,000 for local charity Chrysalis Club. 

 

Now, they're giving local residents the chance to take a closer look at the iconic motorbikes, as well as pose for photographs and chat about just what makes these machines so special. 

 

This is the 120th anniversary year for the manufacturer, which inspires a loyal following around the world. This is your chance to come along and find out why. 

 

The bikes will be touring around the local area, before roaring along the Corbridge Road to Chrysalis HQ, where they'll be available to view between 1030 and midday.

 

Refreshments will be available onsite, and the charity's patron, author Mari Hannah will also be in attendance. Chrysalis Club supports families living with dementia, and relies on charitable donations such as those raised by the Harley riders.

 

Chair Rosie Robson said; "The riders did a brilliant job fund-raising for us last year. This is our chance to say thank you to them, whilst also giving the local community a great opportunity to come along and admire the bikes."
