A COUPLE from Leigh, near Malvern, have won a dream motorcycling holiday in Canada.

Andrew Smith and Kellie Hambrey-Smith will shortly be leaving to enjoy a fortnight of two-wheeled touring in and around the scenic Rocky Mountains.

They won the holiday, worth £5,000, in a competition staged by a new magazine, Motorcycle Voyager. The holiday was donated by H-C Travel of Hampshire.

They will be supplied with a top-of-the-line BMW R1150R touring motorcycle, and from their base at Vancouver, will be able to tour into the Rockies, visiting places such as Calgary and Banff.

"The weather's glorious at this time of year, ideal for cycle riding," said David Grist of H-C Travel.
