Members of an Inverness motorcycle club are hoping to raise lots of cash for a mental health charity.

Born To Lose MCC, which has just celebrated its third year on the road, is planning to push a Harley Davidson 883 sportster, weighing 256kg, from Inverness to Dores to raise the funds for Mikeysline.

The fundraising effort is due to start at Shakes ‘n’ Cakes this Saturday from 10am and end at Dores Inn.

Club president James MacLeod said: “We are a group who share a love of getting on the road on our various styles of bikes and socialising at various events off the road.

“This is the first charity work we have done but hopefully it will be a success and the first of many.”

He said they had chosen the charity because it helped a rising number of people who were struggling, adding: “We wanted to do something to help.

“We thought about different ideas and options for raising funds and various charities and decided on raising funds and awareness for Mikeysline with it being a local charity that does a lot of hard work.”
