Highway Hikers Toy Run (October 18, 2020)

 

Watched this last year and on a rainy day in Ohio watched this police escorted ride from Medway, Ohio to Springfield, Ohio to deliver Christmas toys and money for the needy in the area. Ride was put on by the Highway Hikers which has done this for 41 years. The number of motorcycles in the ride was officially (according to their site) 1,503 and saw all of them during the 50 minutes we watched them roll by. A few photos of the group can be seen in the photos below.       
Not bad considering there is a pandemic going on, plus the fact that it was a rainy day. I have been on a few Toy Runs (back in North Carolina while riding the Kawasaki Vulcan) and they are a lot of fun. Made me feel good to see all these motorcyclists giving to help the needy. Proud to be one of those who ride. My wife and I enjoyed watching them roll down the road to the fairgrounds where the toys and money were dropped off.
