ALMOST one-thousand eager hot rod, car and motorbike fans have flocked to the Buninyong Car and Bike Show on Thursday, 9 January in order to help raise money for bushfire relief.<\/p>\n

Buninyong\u2019s De Soza Park and Crown Hotel hosted hundreds of classic muscle cars, hot rods and chopper motorcycles in order to raise over $33,600 for the National Bushfire Disaster Appeal.<\/p>\n

The evening included raffles and stalls, with street stunt bike rider Dave McKenna performing a range of exciting motorbike moves in front of an astonished crowd.<\/p>\n

Event organisers Lance Clohsey and Brad Quiddington were personally affected by the fires in Eden and Mallacoota and felt inspired to raise money for bushfire aid.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy family and I ended up spending New Year\u2019s Eve on the floor of the Eden Fishing Club, as that was the emergency evacuation centre,\u201d said Mr Clohsey.<\/p>\n

Both organisers were astounded at the turnout, as the fundraiser was only organised in five days.<\/p>\n

Hairdressers and barbers from King\u2019s Crown Barbershop were also present on the evening, with director Martyn Pearce donating all money earned to the cause.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever a hair cut costs is what we ask for in donations, a little bit more if you can afford to. It\u2019s all going to charity, a hundred per cent,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
