More than 25
members from the SIKH motorcycle community rode from the Greater Toronto Area
to Sudbury to show their appreciation for front line workers amid the
coronavirus pandemic.Making stops at
the OPP station, Health Sciences North, and City Hall, SIKH presented a plaque
to the Ontario Provincial Police, staff at Health Sciences North, Greater
Sudbury Police, and the Greater Sudbury Fire Department.“It’s actually
pretty incredible to see the support for first responders, during such a
critical time in our history, from this COVID beginning to now,” said Sargent
Daryl Adams.“You can just
feel the positive energy here. What an incredible group of people from the SIKH
community, and we welcome them here in Sudbury.”This is the
seventh ride the SIKH community has taken part in since the beginning of
pandemic, but their first time in Northern Ontario.SIKH spokesperson
Jagdeep Singh said the group focuses on selfless services as one of their core
values.“We really want
to enhance that, basically being a snow ball effect by doing this repeatedly in
the community.”The SIKH
community plans on continuing their bike rallies and showing appreciation to
front line workers as well as making more stops in Northern Ontario when it is
safe to do so.https://northernontario.ctvnews.ca/sikh-motorcycle-club-rides-to-sudbury-to-show-appreciation-to-front-line-workers-
