    He is fine. The kid has no fear of riding, even after his jump that dropped him into a 10' deep ditch. It won't be long before I won't be able to keep up with him.

    You're in luck!

    How much does it cost to go on the Toy Run?

    The only cost to participate in the 23rd Annual Toy Run to The Children's Hospital is a new, unwrapped toy. To get an idea of what the kids at The Children's Hospital need, download their wish list (requires Adobe Acrobat).

    Re: The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital

    Just a caution for those trying to pre-register as we just did... I'm not sure if this is just a Freedom HD thing or what, but they are only accepting pre-reg from 5-6pm Tue-Fri next week, and all day on Saturday the 6th. They wouldn't let us do it today. They also said we had to bring our toys with us to register. Like others have pointed out you cannot show up to the ride if you haven't pre-registered.

    I don't know if RMHD or other shops have these same stupid restrictions on signing the form, but be aware that you might not be able to register when you think you can if you just show up at one of these shops. Guess we will try again next Saturday...

    Re: The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital

    I registered at Sun today and there were no such stupid restrictions. Just walked in and filled out the pre-reg form and got my armband. They did say no armband=no entry to Aurora Sports Park. Looks like from the registration paperwork that the ride from Aurora Sports Park will be straight down Colfax to CHS (3.5mi). The girl at Sun HD said this year they will be group riding from each of the HD dealerships. I asked if we'll be able to split off and join friends once we get to Aurora Sport Park and she said probably; so CSC can regroup if we're not meeting up before then.

    Re: The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital

    Yeah, the paperwork I saw said the dealership was having people meet up who would then leave from there to go to the park. I'm still all for a CSC breakfast and all of us going to the park as a group so we can ride together, I'm not planning on going to a HD shop just to ride with 500 other people to the place we're actually gonna leave from.

    Re: The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital

    Now I am frustrated...
    I was ok with Preregistration
    I was disappointed with having to pre-stage at a HD Dealership
    I am frustrated that they are requiring armbands, and they didn't give them to me
    I am pissed that Ralph got turned away while trying to jump through these hoops

    I am a HUGE fan of this event and its cause, but screw them.
    Somebody post up a picture of the armband, since they messed up and didn't give me (or my sister, or the two other people I "registered" with) one to begin with.

    Re: The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital

    Well, nothing I saw said we *had* to pre-stage at a HD dealership. In fact the RMHD details say the park opens at 9am but nothing else about getting there, other than you have to show up with a band. So I have every intention of meeting up with CSC'ers for breakfast and riding in as a group. I don't shop at Harley Davidson dealerships, so I see no reason I should ride from one.

    The registration process this year is ridiculous; it sounds like I wasn't the only one to get annoyed with it.

    All I can suggest is you go back and demand your arm-bands since you will need them. For everyone else, don't leave the shop without them!

    Re: The Toy Run to The Children's Hospital

    Any road that is used by the Toy Run organizers is still a municipal thoroughfare and you have as much right to travel it to the hospital as they do. I say screw the registration altogether.

    Thanks. I will stop by Sun this next week and get the bands, and hopefully will be done with the whole process at that point.

    Agreed about the public roadway idea. Hopefully there will be enough Harleys who know nothing about the registration process that RMHD will get a clue and do it differently next year.

    Then again, it could end up with 3 feet of snow, and I wouldn't even be able to drive there. I'd steal my neighbor's truck and put my bike in the back.
