The club’s annual poker run attracts a convoy of about 200 motorbikes each year and has raised $100,777 for Legacy since its inception in 1997.

Club vice-president Jared Powell said pending good weather it expected a similar number of riders this year for Monday’s poker run.

“The worst year was last year when we had about 150, but we have had up to 300 on a really good day,” he said.

“Last year it was a very wet year, but we still had a lot of keen people who wanted to come along.

“People are still committed to come out and support the charities.

“But we were quite drenched by the time we got to the first stop.”

Mr Powell said all were welcome on the ride and if people wanted to bring a car it would be no problem.

“We’ll meet at Noreuil Park, we try to meet at about 10am so we can leave at 11am on Monday,” he said.

“We do a mystery ride on the day and will look at doing about 200 kilometres of riding.”

Mr Powell said previous rides have passed through Bethanga, Holbrook, Howlong and Wangaratta.

“We always try to mix it up each year,” he said.

Last year’s ride raised $15,065 for Legacy and pushed the club’s contribution to the charity over the $100,000 mark.

It costs $30 to register for the ride.
