AN MP is calling on businesses to support the annual Rossendale Valley Bike Show on Sunday, September 22.
Janet Anderson, MP for Rossendale and Darwen, said: "I was really surprised at last year's show to notice how many local shops and cafes in Rawtenstall remained closed during this event.
"We should be proud of what the bike show brings to Rossendale."
Thousands of bikers come into our beautiful Valley every year to enjoy what has now become a firm feature in the annual calendar of bikers everywhere."
