Bikers from in an around Ipswich turned out in there masses yesterday to form a cortege for a local woman’s funeral yesterday.
Tina Rose died last month after suffering from a brain haemorrhage.
Mrs Rose was a fan of motorbikes, owning a Harley Davidson herself.
Around 130 local riders came out to help Mrs Rose’s family celebrate her life.
“All three of her children were gobsmacked,” said Sarah Hutton, Mrs Rose’s friend who organised the cortege with her motorbike group Free Bird.
“It really made their day. All the clubs have done brilliantly to come together like that,”added Ms Hutton.
Mrs Roses’ children had wanted to do something similar when their father Adam passed away two years ago but were unable to do so at the time.
The cortege started on Queen’s Way before following the hearse through Nacton Road and up to the Seven Hill Crematorium.
