Boston Motorcycle Riders and friends held their annual Toy Run to Pilgrim Hospital’s Children’s Ward on Sunday (December 21).
Riders from Boston and the surrounding area – including Woodhall Spa, Holbeach and Spalding – gathered at The Hammer and Pincers, on the outskirts of the town, for breakfast, then rode into the town.
About 35 riders and passengers took part in the event, which was first held in 2008.
In all, nine Christmas sacks stuffed with presents were delivered to the Pilgrim Hospital.
The items were donated by riders and supporters of the event, including the Boston Community Runners.
A spokesman for the riders said: “The smiles on children’s faces when they spotted Santa in a sidecar were lovely to see, but the adults were having lots of fun too.”
The club gave thanks to everyone who supported the event, including The Hammer and Pincers, all the bikers who joined the ride, Boston Community Runners, the staff of the Pilgrim Hospital and everyone who gave them a wave.
