The numbers are in from the annual Big Texas Toy Run

Over 70,000 motorcycles, over $1,000,000 in toys and over $100,000 in cash donations. The biggest motorcycle charity event on the planet!

1. Wow! Av8rdave

That is some turn out. I'll be the ground shook when they fired them up. We had about 20,000 here last weekend for our annual USMC Toys for Tots run. You done good!

2. That's cool...where does the USMC run take place?

20,000 bikes....it is cool when they all head out, isn't it?

That toy run has become the highlight of the holiday season for us.

7. We have a couple different groups here in Tampa Bay

put on the Toys for Tots runs every year. Usually you can make two or three of them during December. For us the USMC is the biggest. Great cause and have a little fun at the same time.

4. What fantastic news. It seems that charitable giving is rather low this year,

so the fact that you folks rallied so much generosity is just heartwarming. Thank you so much. :hug:

6. Thanks, but we deserve no credit

we're not organizers, just happy participants
