Jack, from Loxley, died earlier this month a little less than a year after being diagnosed with brain cancer.
His story touched the hearts of people across Sheffield and beyond, who helped Jack’s family raise an amazing £45,000 as they attempted to pack a lifetime of experiences into the tragically short time they had left with him.
After his death, Jack’s dad Wesley asked bikers to join the funeral convoy today, Saturday, February 29 – and the biking community did not disappoint with an estimated 2,000 gathering outside The Amiral Rodney pub in Loxley, from where the procession started.
Bikers, many wearing blue in tribute to the youngster, made their way through Hillsborough towards Grenoside Crematorium, where Jack’s family said their last goodbyes, before escorting the family back to Wisewood Cemetery.
Here are all the photos from what was an incredibly moving occasion.
