    A great morning out on two wheels once again :)

    Had some light sprinkles on the way over to the start, met up with PTW and some other dudes and had a mad dash to The Foreshore ,, bikes everywhere :laugh:

    All safe, no incidents and a tonne of toys and cash donated,, I will update after I see the expected totals on tonights News.

    Also enjoyed a few cold frothy beverages afterwards on the harbourside with Mr, Mrs and the little Wulfs ,, Cheers mate B)

    Yeah, a great turnout considering the menacing looking sky in the morning with light drizzle (that disappeared quick before the start) ;)
    I think bike were down slightly in numbers than last year, it seemed that way on the road anyway,,,,

    Reports of 4,500 bikers, $45,000 in cash donations and $33,000 in toys :woohoo:
    That make a biger total than last years $75,000 all up
    Makes it all worthwhile when you see the difference it can make to young kids lives :) No matter what the weather is doing, it is a must do thing !!!

    see todays Herald report here.

    Good one Eagle, the 690 is shinning like a star. The hot rod is awesome.
    I missed out this year. I still don’t have a bike but I did buy a pinball machine on the weekend so that’s fun. The hot rod would look good beside it like Happy Days.
