A motorcycle escort organisation in Bexhill went on one last ride with their former member who died on the May Day bike run last month.
Today (June 14) members of Bexhill’s Rolling Rides have done one of its biggest escorts to celebrate Tommy “Donkey” Finch’s life.
He was known to have spent many years riding the south east coast.
Many people took part in the journey to farewell Tommy. Family and friends met at Tesco Extra in Church Wood Drive, then they rode to Tommy’s home address in Hastings before making their way to Harley Shute Road.
They then headed to Cop Hall Roundabout on the A259 before taking a right to the A22, and finally arriving to the Wealden Crematorium.
The Custom Café had posted its tributes to Tommy last month on Facebook page. They wrote: “Dear All, we would like to dedicate this Friday’s bike night in remembrance to the very well respected, charitable, and lovely Tommy Finch, who sadly lost his life way too early on Monday’s Mayday run. He was a regular customer.”
After the service, family and friends of Tommy gathered at 1066 Café to celebrate and remember Tommy’s life.
