Newcastle Toyrun 2015

Was wondering if there are any Krew heading in for the Bikers for Kids TOYRUN this year after Gaz's Kristmas Kampout.
I managed to pull in a favour at work , to help assist an avid photographer get some action shots during the ride from Stockton to Newcastle . 
The start point has been moved to the Ballast Ground on the western side of Stockton, which should help greatly with riders getting out of Stockton.
A suggested meeting point would be at the HPCA BBQ van at the Ballast Ground.
I've themed the rig as the " Kandy Kane Kart " helping to distribute treats to the kids along the way. This is to be done whilst parked , no throwing lollies . 
I hope to pull up on the footpath at the entrance to the Museum , if not there , then opposite Harrys Cafe de Wheels .
This will give the photographer a chance to capture the interaction between riders and public onlookers.
Hope to see you there.

finally finished getting the " Kandy Kane Kart " ready , no sneek peeks at this stage folks , sorry.
Be great to see a few other K's on the day for this one . If you can get along , my plans with the photographer (pillion) at this stage are :
possibly the easiest meeting point is Hexham Maccas , where we met for the Blue Boxer.
As I'm heading in early to position my Blue Boxer sign (which Big John has approved)  I will be leaving Hexham at 8.00 to get into Stockton .
during the ride my intention is to stop at the entrance to the museum in honeysuckle , for a photo shoot, then stop again opposite Harrys Cafe de Wheels to hand out Kandy Kanes to the kids passing by . this will be the safest location to do this. Oh what fun it is to be a Santas helper. 
The Newcastle Fun Run , is on the same morning and is a great chance to interact with passer by"s .
Weather is looking good for the day , yippeee.

If I miss you before you get to Stockton , I should be parked alongside the BBQ trailer , run by the HPCA. 
enjoy the day Knuts . don't forget your tinsel.

Thanks' for keeping us up to date with your plans Ed. I will be staying at Warrens at Toronto, and he wants to get away from there at around 700am. I'll be just going with the flow, and may catch up along the way.

a top morning out Keith . due to placement at the mustering at the toyrun , I missed catching up with Seanii , Kerry and the Hillbillies. caught brief glimpses of them during the ride . 
Newcastle Toyrun 12304311
K's were well represented on the ride . Still trying to upload , with my new Windows 10 ( hard to navigate ) software. 
I was about to rendezvous with Smithy at the Newcastle foreshore ,
Newcastle Toyrun Smithy10

 but ended up parking next to a 85' Turbo RS , who like myself had the gift of the Blarney. 
Newcastle Toyrun Cam01811

Then it was off to find Smithy , via the tug o' war , with some success against the so called pro's. much fun indeed.
Newcastle Toyrun Untitl10
 by the time I reached Smithy's location all to be found was a neat little one owner Blue 84' RS . the owner stating he moved from NZ to Eleebana , failing to sell his K prior to shipping himself across , he brought it over with him . no regrets he says.
Newcastle Toyrun Cam01810
 amazing how 6 hours can disappear when you are enjoying yourself . top weekend on the K with fellow Krew .Hope everyone enjoyed the day.

Nicely done Ed looks like much fun was had by all. 
Good to see the Kristmas spirit is alive and Kicking down there.

Certainly your weather looks considerably better than ours up here in wet and windy winter land.

Fantastic vid! Thanks for sharing - great sound track too.

Had to watch it several times - there's some wacky rigs out there (interesting balance with the blue side car two bikes back from you and as for 4 up on a trike! = yikes!!). I wonder, could you actually see through the blue?

Great effort.

Great effort.
I was watching the chair in the air in my mirror , trying to get the photographer to capture it , he threw it up a few times for the cameras.
Strangely enough , i was thinking of a Blue Christmas , and then we have this Vid with Elvis .

Now preparing for 2016 Newcastle Toyrun

Its on Again    NEWCASTLE TOYRUN 2016


Another enjoyable Toyrun in Newcastle.
The day was welcomed with a slight cloud cover which helped keep the warm sun at bay during the ride .
We headed off from Stockton at snails pace at 10am  , this required the assistance of RossKKo's fan override switch, to keep Smurfette cool under the skirt.

Well its that time of the year again , and the Toyrun in Newcastle is gearing up for a celebration this weekend , 40th Anniversary.
It will start in the usual location of the Ballast grounds in Stockton . However this year due to minor dissruptions by the V8 Super Cars ( Holdens Rule )
the ride will finish at Wickham Park . 



Thanks to Waz for his help in gathering up my new lid,  we will be ready for the ride on Sunday .Hopefully might see other K's in the crowd on the day.

Not sure Sean , some estimates are suggesting that it was weaker than usual , surprising as it was their 40th Anniversary ride . Not sure if the move away from the Newcastle foreshore as a finish line distrupted things a bit . The weather on the day was fantastic .

Yes, I need that mallet for sidecar " adjustments" and occasionally whacking my prosthetic knee.
