Toys For Tots Run 9-16-06

It is always a good feeling to help kids. When you can help and ride your bike well, it just doesn't get any better than that.










We started at the Crash Bar, just outside of New Bern on 70 east. This fine establishment is no longer in business by the way.



Since Toys For Tots is sponsored by the Marine Corps, there were quite a few Marines helping out.










Toys were definitely in abundance and then there were the bikes.
The weather was great. We pulled out of the Crash Bar and our route took us to Chopper Toyz near Morehead, then to Swansboro, Beaufort, and ended up in Havelock at Jean's Place. We actually won a folding chair in the raffle at Jean's. It was a little cool and cloudy at first but quickly became sunny. There was one brief shower late in the day while we were on Hwy 101 between the Intracoastal Waterway bridge and Havelock.

Here are a few of the "Best of the pictures".
