This morning it was off to Maryborough on my Harley for the 2008Toy Run to raise funds and give toys to needy families for distribution at Christmas time. This event is organised by the local Fraser Coast chapter of the Ulysses Motorcycle Club and the toys are give to the Salvation Army. There looked like well over 500 bikes and we were all absolutely roasting in our leathers!

We started at the Sporties Club in Maryborough then followed a Police escort to Hervey Bay, riding along the Esplanade and finished at the Kondari Resort at Urangan. Here we dropped off the toys and had a sausage sizzle, listening to Christmas carols by the Salvation Army band.

With all the people who come out to watch and wave plus the support for the community from all the local bikers, this event is my official Christmas festive season starter every year. One can feel the LOVE as long as you appreciate the SOUND!
