South Lanarkshire scooterists are set to come together this weekend for a special Ride of Remembrance event. The Incognito Scooter Club from East Kilbride will be teaming up with the High Numbers scooterists from Cambuslang to honour the fallen and support the Veterans charity, Erskine Hospital. Over 40 riders are expected to participate in the convoy on Saturday, November 9. This event is a significant gathering of two scooter clubs dedicated to paying tribute to Remembrance Day.
Incognito member, Alastair McMillan, shared, “We’re a fairly new scooter group from East Kilbride who will be joining up with High Numbers in Cambuslang for their annual Remembrance Ride on Saturday.” The clubs plan to visit various war memorials and monuments to show their respect and support for the charity.
The route for the convoy includes stops at The Leeburn in East Kilbride, the East Kilbride war memorial on Graham Avenue, Cambuslang Cenotaph, Rutherglen Cenotaph, Bridgeton war memorial at Glasgow Green, Alexander Park war memorial, RHF monument at Glasgow Cathedral, and ending at the Cenotaph in Glasgow’s George Square. All scooter enthusiasts are encouraged to join the clubs in this meaningful journey and contribute to the cause by donating to Erskine Hospital.
Additionally, Incognito will be leading another ride to East Kilbride cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday, November 10, gathering at The Leeburn and visiting The Cameronians Memorial in Glasgow’s Kelvingrove Park and Auchentibber Memorial. The clubs aim to create a memorable experience while showing their support for the Veterans charity.

In conclusion, the coming together of South Lanarkshire scooter clubs for the Ride of Remembrance not only honours the fallen but also showcases the spirit of community and support for our veterans. The commitment of these enthusiasts to commemorate Remembrance Day in such a collective and meaningful way is truly inspiring.
