    Rego`d vehicles only Alex, it is a ride from Stockton to Newy Foreshore to deliver toys, donations to the Salvation Army dropoff area. Many of the participants dress in XMAS cheer, decorate their bikes, take kids as pillions and strap toys to their bikes as well.
    I think there were close to 10,000 bikes last year and $75000 raised B)
    It is a national event with dates in different locations (some coincide like Newy & Port Macquarie & tamworth last year)

    Last year some of us met on the Industrial Hwy and rode in together, meeting FourtyFour on the last road into Stockton,,
    Will most likely do similar this year,, meet point & time will be announced closer to the day for those interested in tagging along as a group.
