23rd Martin Jennings Memorial run Sunday 12th September 2010 Around 1,300 bikers set off from Garras Wharf in Truro to remember Martin Jennings, from Beacon, Camborne, who was killed in a racing accident while competing in the Isle of Man Manx Grand Prix in 1987. Spectators lined the route as the bikers rode along the A30 up to Camborne down to Helston and then back to Falmouth. Every year since the 39-year-old's death, bikers from across the country have taken part in a charity ride in his honour. The event raises thousands of pounds for charity each year with this year’s recipient being Cancer Research UK. The above text was pinched from the Falmouth Packet Hopefully they wont mind.
