“No one rides alone”
Today isn’t just another day it’s the day the veteran community and the biker world come together, side by side, to honour those we’ve lost to su***de 💔. Engines rumbling, flags carried with pride, and hearts united in grief, love, and remembrance.

This ride means something. It says their lives mattered. It says we remember every single one. And it says, louder than anything else, that no one rides alone not today, not ever.

Every bike and trike carries a story. Every veteran carries a memory. And today, we carry them all with us, with dignity and with the kind of unity only this community understands.

To everyone riding, supporting, or standing along the route: thank you. Your presence is a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is still a family a brotherhood, a sisterhood that refuses to let anyone fade quietly.

I’m so proud of everyone ❤️

Lest we forget.

How amazing is this from Billy.
If you’ve got a motorbike or a trike, tomorrow is your chance to be part of something truly meaningful. Riders are coming together for a memorial honouring Armed Forces veterans who tragically lost their lives to su***de a powerful reminder of the support our veteran community deserves.

Please join the ride, show your respect, and help raise awareness.
Every bike, every rider, every mile matters.

📣 Our A–Z Local Business Spotlight for Erewash (Starting at Z!) 📣
Supporting our brilliant local shops, pubs, trades and self‑employed residents.

Credit where it’s due this brilliant monthly idea comes from a wonderful Erewash resident, Cat Hope, who runs her own community page. We’ve borrowed her concept with full thanks to her for inspiring it. Take a bow 🙇‍♀️ ✊🥰👏🥳

We’re kicking off a brand‑new A–Z Business Spotlight, but in true Ilkeston style we’re doing it differently we’re starting at 📣”Z” 📣 and working our way backwards.

Every week we’ll feature a new letter and shine a light on local shops, pubs, cafés, tradespeople, charities and self‑employed residents who want to promote what they do.

This is a simple way to boost local trade, support our community economy, and help residents discover what’s right on their doorstep.

If you run a business and want to be included, just drop your details in the comments using the template below. We’ll feature you when your letter comes up beginning with Z businesses first.

Let’s show off the amazing talent and hard work in our town.
