5th Annual Toy Ride benefiting Peyton Manning Children's Hospital. We collect toys and raise funds to purchase toys to be given to the patients throughout the year. Ride participants, along with Santa, deliver these items to PMCH on motorcycles. It's simply amazing the difference something so small as a toy, stuffed animal, or a fleece blanket can make to a child in the hospital.
We hope you can join us this year as we deliver the toys to the hospital.
No Registration Fee. However, we encourage every rider to make a donation of New, Unwrapped Toys in place of a registration fee.
No Pre-registration necessary. Plan to register the day of the event at HD of Indianapolis.Saturday,

Come and enjoy our beautiful Texas Hill Country. We are home to the world famous Three Twisted Sisters, but we have so many more roads to explore!
We have great vendors coming, and will be adding more rydes in addition to the awesome ones we had last year.
This is more like a Spyder party hosted by your Spyder friends - lots of social time, door prizes, good food, talks, Q & A's led by our accessory guru's and more.
You will want to include in your plans our police escorted Road Warrior Awareness Ryde through downtown historic Boerne. We will be honoring at least 12 Road Warriors leading us on their specially wrapped Spyders. These warriors will have just completed a 2000+ mile adventure to our rally from California.
