Reading Toy Run Pictures

Somewhat later than I hoped, here are this year’s Reading Toy Run Pictures. Unfortunately, I had a shoot shortly after the event and didn’t have time to stick around or post the pictures yesterday.

It was a fantastic event with more participants than I’ve seen before and more effort going into decorating bikes and costumes. This was all the more remarkable given the rain right up until kick off at 14:00 when, as if taking pity on everyone, the clouds parted and we had sun for the whole run.

The most impressive display that I saw was a Gold Wing decorated in a vast amount of tinsel and 10,000 lights. The picture doesn’t do it justice.

There was also a boat. Possibly ridden by someone who was expecting the weather to get worse.

These are mostly pictures of the gathering before we set off but I grabbed a few at the other end as others were arriving and handing their toys in.

There are more pictures on my Facebook page and on Google+ here.
