MOTORCYCLISTS are set to take part in tribute ride for a teenager who was found dead at his Llandudno home.
Odin Brown, 16, died on April 19. A death notice says Odin was the son of Shirley and Roddy. He was also brother to Calan, Adam, Mysty and Saxon.
Odin's funeral service will take place on Tuesday, May 9 at St Paul's Church in Craig y Don at 1.45pm. This will be followed by a private committal service at Colwyn Bay Crematorium.
A request has gone out to all bikers to take part in a "last big ride" for Odin.
A post being shared on Facebook says: "Odin was only 16-years-old. He loved motorbikes.
"His mum has asked me to reach out to the biking community to ask if we could escort Odin on his last ride."
Friend of the family Jeff Walker has asked that anyone - who is able to attend the last ride - meets at Ann's Kitchen Mochdre from 11am.
Riders will then arrive at the family home between 12.30pm and 12.45pm and escort Odin to the church service at 1.45pm.
Riders will escort Odin on his last ride to Mochdre Crematorium after the service.
A gofundme.com has been set up to help the family pay for Odin's funeral.
