Bikers raise money for needy elderly

Retiree Koh Tian Seng, 79, had a memorable Sunday - he rode on a motorcycle for the first time.

The ride while short- just a few minutes from the Public Utilities Board Recreation Club to the Singapore Power (SP) Club in Woodleigh Park- was nonetheless exciting for Mr Koh who usually spends his Sundays watching television in his one-room rental flat in Marsiling.

Mr Koh and two other beneficiaries of voluntary welfare organisation Swami Home Help Service had joined in the final leg of the charity ride for motorcyclists organised by fundraising group Riders Aid and rode pillion on Goldwing motorcycles.

A convoy of about 1,000 riders rode from Defu Lane to the SP Club in Woodleigh Park to raise donations for the SP Heartware Fund which supports programmes for the needy elderly.
