Australian TOY RUNs
began in Perth, Newcastle and Melbourne in the 1970s. In 2014 there are more
than 50 in cities and towns across OZ. If you want to make a positive statement
about being Australian, make the effort, grab an Aussie flag and fly it at a TOY
RUN. Help us get the best things about Christmas in Australia and Australian
motorcycling into the main stream media.

watch the bikes arrive about noon.
Albert Park has great
eateries and Jock's ice creamery is a must for kids. The beach is at the end of
the road too. Spend your money locally and keep local businesses happy. I'm
having lunch at the Beach Hotel on the corner of Victoria Avenue
and Beaconsfield Parade.

GEELONG HOG TOY RUN. Sunday, December 14.
Assemble on the Geelong waterfront. www.geelonghog.com.au .
GIFTS. New toys and clothes
do a lot of good. Pre-loved soft toys can be a problem for charities because
they have to pay for them to be cleaned. Tinned food means a person who might go
hungry at Christmas gets a feed. And, of course money is most welcome. Even a
single coin makes a difference. Lots of single coins make a big difference.
SAFETY. All road laws apply.
Please do not overtake on the ride. If you want to leave the run, indicate left,
pull over when it's safe and wait for the column to pass before moving
on.
