The police were fantastic and helped slow the traffic for us with two walking up front and a police van following on behind.”There were riders of all ages and those who took part received a rosette courtesy of one of the local sponsors; Roadrunner MOT Centre in Carluke.The riders were very easy to spot thanks to.
