WILLIAMSPORT, MD - The sounds of the engine has gotten Brian Hall hooked on bikes ever since he was eight years old.
"Riding dirt bikes then street bikes when I turned 16 and had a bike ever since," says Hall who is riding in the Toys For Tots ride.
Hall is one of the dozens of people who shined up their bikes for the Toys for Tots ride. The money raised goes to help buy toys for kids in Washington County.
The ride is to help bring awareness to the organization and also the need. Organizers say with the recovering economy some parents can't afford presents. With rides like these, they're hoping to give a bit of the holiday spirit for their kids.
"Last year we collected 17,000 toys and so far we've already gotten 13,000," says James Mills, Toys for Tots.
If you would like to help out, you can drop off any new and unwrapped toys until December 14th.
