[Treblehook]

Saw dozens of Hell's Angel riding in to Kelowna this afternoon... what a lucky place Kelowna is to have these guys who just love their motorcycles visit.

I hope people don't swipe all loud bike riders with the same brush they have developed prejudging a certain group... or is that too much to ask

Nope, old Harley driving guys with bikes so loud they drown out the jets flying overhead are just as annoying. Except you probably don't sell drugs, run prostitution rings or kill people.
If you could maybe not gun your bike at 5:30 in the morning when you go to work and wake up the entire neighborhood that would be great:)

You live among people. Suck it up. At least they're working. You're not entitled to a say on how they get there.

Anyone who is not aware that HA is involved with illegal activities, must be one of biggest damn fools around.

Jlives. There is a noise bylaw. I could care less how you get to work. By your logic it would be ok for me to smash down your fence and drive over your lawn on my way to work because you don't have the right to tell me how to get to work?

Right. My comment on modes of transportation means it's a free for all. OK then.

Over 130 riders braved the rain on Sunday morning to take part in the Salvation Army Motorcycle Toy Run in Kelowna.

Dolls, puppets, construction sets, sports equipment and many other toys were donated Sunday in the parking at McCurdy corner.

Riders followed Santa Claus’s motorcycle sleigh all the way to Lake Country and back for a total hour-long ride.

"This is a big event for the Salvation Army Christmas blessing campaign," said Kim Burry, Christmas toy depot coordinator. "Every year we serve hundreds of families that need help at Christmas. Last year, we registered over 500 families and gave away over 1,100 toys, and we expect the need to be even higher this year.”

Event organizer Brendan Buttler said he has two little kids and couldn’t imagine them not having toys to wake up to on Christmas morning.

“This is our 32nd annual ride here in Kelowna and it will be here next year,” he said.

Salvation Army community coordinator Sonia Withers said the turn out this year was amazing.

“This year, it has grown which is really exciting to see,” she said. “This is an opportunity for us to kick off Christmas and start collecting toys for the kids.”

Cash donations are always helpful, added Withers, because it allows for the specific needs of families to be met.

They all drove past my house this morning. It's an annual event.

Were all those HA bikers Saturday here for the SA toys or their own event ? Ton of bikes.
