The Target: Paul Redfern, founder of charity Blood Bikes Manchester
The consignment: The coveted Pride of Manchester award
Destination: Hyde, Greater Manchester
Paul Redfern was just 18 when he was involved in a serious motorbike accident losing his right leg, his life saved only by an emergency blood transfusion.
Based on his own life-saving experience, he decided to set up a dedicated charity to assist with getting essential blood supplies to wherever they are required in the most efficient way possible – by motorbike!
The charity is funded solely by donations and from fund-raising events set up by supporters with volunteers on-call riding the dedicated Blood Bikes. “Since the start of lockdown, many of the normal streams of revenue have all but disappeared” Paul said. “The bikes are running every day supplying the North West Air Ambulance for example, with blood and plasma supplies which enables them to save more lives at the scene of a serious accident. Of course, the bikes need to be serviced, fuelled and insured, so any donations are always very welcome to keep this vital service going.”
I’m sure you will agree that Paul is a worthy winner of this special award and, if you would like to volunteer or donate to this valuable charity, contact info@bloodbikesmanchester.co.uk

Yesterday we learned of the passing of our friend and supporter of the RAFBF100 project, Allan Scott.
We first met Allan when he offered his support in raising £100,000 for the RAF Benevolent Fund through the sales of the RAFBF100 Spitfire.
Allan, aged 99, was one of the last surviving Spitfire pilots from the Second World War, and the last surviving Spitfire Ace from the Siege of Malta. Remarkably, Allan survived without taking a single bullet in any plane he flew, yet ironically, he was seriously injured after performing an aerial display in a Tiger Moth biplane in Edinburgh in 1953. The stresses of the aerobatics snapped the tailfin and the plane went into a dive, crashing into the golf course close by the RAF base.
Flying Spitfires gave Allan a taste for speed and he could be seen flying up the country lanes of Shropshire on his motorbike back in the day. When he saw the CCM RAFBF Spitfire for the first time he said that he wished he was young again and had the chance to ride this beautiful machine. Allan remarked that it sounded like a merlin flying past!
Allan was a true gentleman and will be greatly missed by all who knew him and our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
CCM have joined forces with JEM Speed Shop in Batley, West Yorkshire to create our very first pop-up showroom.
Why JEM? Well, we recognised that the guys here were doing something new and exciting with their distinctive version of a biking destination. With great facilities like “The Pit Stop” American-style diner; Micro-pub serving craft ales; clothing and accessories; plus a barbers shop and tattoo parlour it’s a great place to go for a ride out! Oh and they sell bikes too, and all of this under one roof in a hip, laid back setting.
The CCM pop-up shop officially launches this Saturday, 29 August with the following bikes on display;
The new Blackout model is based on the original Scrambler concept, and was created as a tribute to the machine ridden by Scarlett Johansson and Florence Pugh in the November release of Black Widow.
This gorgeous special edition can be yours for just £8995 and you can find out more about the new Spitfire Blackout by visiting www.ccm-motorcycles.com/blackout
Come and meet the team this weekend at JEM Speed Shop. You can find them at Unit 3, Brookroyd Mill, Bradford Road, Batley, West Yorkshire, WF17 8ND from 09:00 to 17:00 7 days a week.
