As the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship returns to Donington Park, so does the chance to raise money for the Two Wheels for Life charity. There will be several opportunities to donate throughout the Prosecco DOC UK Round including during the Paddock Show where some of the off-track entertainment will be to help raise money for the charity. The UK Round takes place from 30th June-2nd July and the aim will be to raise as much money as possible.
Two Wheels for Life helps to ensure health care reaches some of the most remote communities in Lesotho, Malawi, Nigeria and The Gambia. It works with Riders for Health, a partner organisation, to help provide local-led and managed assistance by focusing on transport for health workers as well as helping healthcare services reach the most remote parts of each community, where motorcycles are the perfect tool.
There will be charity auctions during the UK Round and a concert to raise money for Two Wheels for Life. There’s an extended auction on Friday which begins at 17:50 Local Time (GMT+1), the first chance for fans to buy donated items such as helmets, boots, a VIP experience and lots more. The second auction takes place on Saturday at 18:30. Saturday’s events take place as part of an extended “SuperShow” and also features the charity concert.
The concert, where the winner will be decided by the fans, takes place from 18:00 on Saturday and features riders such as Iker Lecuona (Team HRC), the Aruba.it Racing – Ducati team, WorldSSP’s Oli Bayliss (D34G Racing), teammate Maximilian Kofler, Adrian Huertas (MTM Kawasaki), the Yamaha Thailand Racing Team and GMT94 Yamaha’s Christophe Guyot. There’s also a finale planned which will feature some well-known paddock personalities – all will be revealed on Saturday evening!
