Reading Toy Run

This year, the curiously named Reading Toy Run (given that it takes place mostly in Wokingham) will be on December 4th and kicks off at 13:00 from Foster Wheeler.

This annual event provides gazillions of toys for the children of Barnardo’s and thousands (OK, hundreds) of motorbikes are involved, travelling the route to High Close School in Wiltshire Road. The bikes are frequently decorated with tinsel and Christmas themes and all the riders bring a new toy to donate.

I’ve done it a few times, including last year, and I’ll be there again this year on my Triumph Rocket III, trying to get some interesting pictures.

Here are a few pictures I took last year with a pocket camera at Foster Wheeler as we were preparing to set off.
