A stream of purple and a procession of motorbikes and cars through a Bristol village this weekend will mark the 17th birthday of a local teenager who tragically lost his life in a crash last year. Daniel Davies died while riding his moped, in a collision with a car on the A4174 through-about near Warmley on the evening of April 17.
To mark Daniel's 17th birthday, which was on March 1, his mum Samantha planned a celebration ride-out through Warmley this Saturday (March 4). It comes after more than 200 motorbikes followed his funeral procession last year and she hopes to recreate the moment to celebrate what would have been his birthday.
The event will raise money for the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity (GWAAC) with a number of motorbike clubs and car enthusiasts expected to join the ride. Speaking to Bristol Live, Samantha said: “Daniel loved that bike and he was passionate about bikes. Because it was his 17th birthday this week on March 1, I wanted to do something with the bikers.
