Weston Hospicecare asked Chris for his Last Wish: Chris said he would like to be in a motorcycle procession around his home town of Weston-Super-Mare in the UK.
Rachael Amos from Weston Hospicecare sent out emails and posts on social media for help.
I was contacted by Wells Classic Motorcycle Club on Wednesday the 10th of April and asked if I could help.
I started asking around and by Thursday evening we had arranged for the Ride on Sunday the 14th April.
I cannot thank everyone enough, that participated, spectators/well wishers, riders, the atmosphere was amazing and Chris and his family were blown away by the kindness and caring of everyone on the day.
It really meant a lot.
I tried to get every rider onto the video, apologies if I missed anybody.
Thankyou to everyone that provided photographs and video, for me to edit alongside my footage, for this video and ones for the family too.
