Over three thousand motorbikes are expected to take over the roads in Shrewsbury today for Bike4Life.

They'll be taking on a 23 mile journey from RAF Cosford to a festival site.

The ride out is to help raise money for the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity.

The Bike4Life Festival includes live bands and biker demonstrations, biker-themed stalls and exhibitions, plus a range of refreshment stands and entertainment for young children.

As well, this year the ride out will again be led by former special forces soldier and keen biker, Ollie Ollerton.

Road users are being warned of some disruption on the roads, with the A5 and M54 expected to be disrupted.

It's also expected to be the largest motorbike gathering in the country.

The event will begin at 11am on Sunday.
