29TH AUGUST 2010 The East Coast Truckers believe it may be longest convey of working lorries in the world with large crowds coming out to wave. The 25th East Coast Truckers children's charity convoy saw 101 lorries set out from NORWICH ENGLAND then over 20 miles to Great Yarmouth seafront. The first convoy in 1986 saw 22 lorries make their way from Norwich to Yarmouth. 100 disadvantaged children enjoyed a ride in a truck a picnic and games at a theme park they also had a close encounter with Darth Vader and his evil stormtroopers as Star Wars fans from Norwich dressed up to entertain the children.
In the last few years about 80 lorry drivers from across East Anglia have taken part in the event.
For the 25th anniversary it was decided that 100 lorries were needed to mark the milestone event.
As well as the children's convoys, the charity has raised about £350,000 for good causes over the last decade.
Not much in the way of chimes, illegal or not.
What speed was that police bike doing? About the ton by the look of it!
