Leamington biker to go on personal journey in support of motorcycling charity
A Leamington biker, who says his passion riding and repairing motorcycles has helped him through difficult parts of his life, will embark on a personal journey in support of a charity which carries out acts of kindness across the country.
Keith Hudson, 51, of Whitnash, runs a small YouTube channel called The Swearing Room , which documents motorcycle journeys, the local café community, and the people who bring those places to life across Warwickshire and the surrounding area.
He also posts videos of himself repairing and restoring bikes “reflecting a simple idea that sits at the heart of the project — that sometimes fixing a bike can help fix a piece of yourself too”.
This year, he is taking on a personal challenge linked to his Bikes & Brew Passport series of videos in support of the Make Your Mark – Motorcycle & Motorbikers Acts of Random Kindness charity.
He said: “This might sound dramatic, but riding has genuinely helped me through some difficult chapters in [my] life.
“When things feel heavy, getting on the bike, clearing the mind and just moving forward has always been therapy for me.
“This year I’m taking that idea further.”
He added: “Through the Bikes & Brew Passport series, I’ll be riding between cafés, meeting riders, exploring new routes, and building community - all while raising money for Make Your Mark, a charity that supports mental health awareness and wellbeing.
“Every ride tells a story.
“Every stop becomes a conversation.
“Every donation helps someone else find their way forward.”
