The weather was perfect for the 34th Nevada County Food and Toy Run. The annual event drew thousands of bikers who brought new toys, food and gifts for local families in need.

Gathering up at the Rood Center, the riders lined up for the procession and at noon engines roared to life.




















Escorted by law enforcement, the riders left the Rood Center. It took twenty-one minutes for all the bikes to depart!















After riding through downtown Nevada City and Grass Valley, including a ride through Mill Street, the caravan arrived at the Nevada County Fairgrounds for the big distribution. According to organizers, approximately 2,000 kids and their families passed through the Fairgrounds this afternoon.





















A few excerpts from the 21-minute long departure from the Rood Center.!
