Be on the bandit this time...no problem I'm sure I could make it, love these toy runs

I will be there, on my cx, big red thing with black panniers.

just turn up from 10:30 ish, get a brew from Tesco and then spend an hour or so watching others turn up and chatting then depart at noon, make our way to the together trust and then on to lowry centre for francis house hospice shop,

then split up and head our own ways.

just bring an unwrapped toy for some one aged up to 16. then either carry it to one of the drop offs and then put it where told to or stick it in one of the trikes or trailers and then unload at the drop offs.

done the last 7 of these, great couple of hours.

VERY IMPORTANT INFO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have had to make a change to the route of our Toy Run. We are no longer riding to The Lowry Centre. Due to police restrictions we are not allowed to ride there. We are leaving Tesco as arranged and riding to Together Trust in Cheadle where we will leave all the toys. Rainbow Family Trust will collect their share from there. We are unable to ride to Rainbow Family Trust as they have extensive building work on and there is just no room for all the bikes. We hope you will still join us though, thanks for your support xx

same excuse as last year, something fishy going on

[Airhead]

It might be the police just being unhelpful, arent they responsible for the demise of the salvation army run?

Yes they were, but skewed it to make it look like the organisers cancel it
