The current record is 138 makes and models at an event organised by the KillSpills Campaign in 2007.<br \/>\nThe parade organised by the Quay Vipers Motorcycle Club, will assemble near the slipway where the world\u2019s most famous ship Titanic was built and adjacent to the new iconic building and exhibition centre Titanic, Belfast.  The attempt will follow a two-mile route to the City Hall and back again to the starting point for a bikers\u2019 barbecue.  The world record attempt will be started by local boxing hero Wayne Pocket McCullough, Olympic silver medallist and former WBC Bantamweight and Commonwealth champion.<\/p>\n<p>Other sponsors of this event are Adelaide Insurance Services, Days Hotel, Stena Line and Bikesafe.<br \/>\nThe record attempt will begin at 7pm and is part of a week-long tour of Britain and Ireland to raise awareness of road safety and money for charity.<\/p>\n<p>IAM chief executive Simon Best said: \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter if you have a 1200cc Harley of a 50cc moped, we want to see as many two-wheelers as possible join us so that we smash the world record. It\u2019s for a great cause and will also be a terrific night out. \u201c<br \/>\nRiders can sign up for the world-record team here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iam.org.uk\/worldrecordattempt\">http:\/\/www.iam.org.uk\/worldrecordattempt<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Belfast will see a world record attempt for the most number of makes and models of motorcycles in a single parade.
