Twenty-one motorcycle enthusiasts hit the roads around the central and northwest part of the province for the Ride for Life last Saturday.

The riders left St. Vital Church in Battleford heading to Biggar where the local Knights of Columbus had a lunch set up, and then left there for Saskatoon for a similar meeting with local Knights of Columbus there.

From there they left Saskatoon to go onto Highway 16 to Radisson, where they stopped at the Red Bull. They then resumed the journey back to North Battleford for supper at St. Vital Hall.

The weather held up for the day, said organizer Marc Grosjean, until the riders made it to Maymont. Then there was a bit of a downpour that they had to work through.

The event was sponsored by Knights of Columbus No. 5626. Grosjean thanks the community for the prize donations and contributions to the event.

A total of $1,000 was donated to Battlefords Right to Life. There was also additional money raised from a car show and shine event that ran that day as well.
