On Sunday 12 th Dec.there was a Toy Run in Burton on Trent
That was jointly organised by The Ribcrackers and Unwanted
Mcc that covered 3 counties and went through 4 towns from
Burton on Trent to Loughborough.We all met at The Beech,
Derby Road,Stretton,at 10am and Jim the Landlord had very
Kindly laid on tea and coffee which was very welcome to all
Especially to the ones who had come a long distance already,
The photographer from the local paper came to take pics and
Then we all set off, there was about 130 bikes and trikes which
Had been loaded with donations of toys and games and chocs,
We all went through the center of Burton in convoy amongst
All the Xmas shoppers,as we left Burton we went on to
Swadlincote to The Catchems where we were met by the
Landlord who had kindly collected more presents and picked up
Some more riders and after a short stay we went on our way to
The next port of call which was the Victoria in Coalville more
Peoplejoined us and we all stopped for a drink and chat before
We all set off to The Hospice in Loughborough to deliver the
Goodies to the children.While we were there we picked out the
Best dressed bike which was a ZX10 belonging to Pete and
Gina from Black Country Mag who won a optimiser congrats
To them.I must say though that you all made it a truly great day
Not only for the kids but for us as well because without you it
Wouldn't have been possible,so a big thankyou to you all
