Bikers Toy Run

Once again I found myself standing in the middle of the road on the first Sunday of December. Dr Barnados Toy Run was blessed with fine weather as the 2pm road closure drew near. Hundreds of people lined the roundabout and adjoining roads as the first tinsel clad bikers cruised past. Trikes and quads led the way.

Next it was the bikers. Fancy dress is almost compulsory with Minions a big hit this year.

Horns honked, children cheered and sweets flew into the crowd until the last of the near 2000 machines had trundled past. Every year it seems to be bigger and better supported. Long may it continue.

Steve.
