Default Ton of bikes on our toy run

Yesterday we (the Roaddogs I.R.O.) held our 33 annual toy run in Billings Montana and had a great turnout. We lucked out on the weather, the run started at 12 noon, pretty much done by 2 PM, by 4:30 it was raining hard and by 6:30 snowing hard but everyone was pretty much home by then. We raised approximately $40,000 in toys. Here's a story on it from our local TV station. http://www.ktvq.com/story/36983178/r...salvation-army

My brother in the GG told me about this and sent me some pictures. Said it was the biggest one in 33 years.

Good job!

I strapped a stuffed animal on my bike Sunday and drove out to the 30th annual Toy run in Los Angeles.




I did not see any other bikes with toys on the ride out...thought it a little odd until I arrived. The Toy Run is actually next Sunday. lmao

I left the stuffed dog by Harley's front door and will have to pick up another...for the real event.

They've pretty much forbidden stuffed animals at our toy runs (ABATE). Might check your local rules before you spring for another one.
