HBC Toy Run Disclaimer & Safety Briefing
Welcome to the annual HBC Toy Run! On behalf of the entire HBC family, we want to thank every one of you for attending. It’s because of your generous spirit and love for the ride that we can make a real difference for the kids in our community this holiday season. Let's hear it for yourselves!
Now, before we fire up those engines and head out, we need to take just two minutes to go over some very important safety and legal points.
First and foremost, your participation in today's ride is completely voluntary. By choosing to ride with us, you personally accept full and complete responsibility for your own safety, the safety of your passenger, and the operation of your motorcycle.
This is a group ride, but it is not a sanctioned or escorted event. The HBC is a club that runs charity events. Our sole purpose is to organize events like this to give back to the community. We are not a professional riding organization, and our organizers and volunteers are not responsible for any loss, damage, injury, or accident that may occur before, during, or after this event.
You are responsible for your own bike, your own gear, and your own riding decisions. Please, ride within your limits.
A few key safety points for the ride:
Participation in this event does not grant you any status, membership, or affiliation with the HBC or any other organization. There are no patches, colors, or insignia associated with this ride. We are simply a group of individuals coming together for a common charitable cause.
Let’s keep the focus on what truly matters: the toys in our saddlebags and the smiles we’re going to help create.
Alright, that’s the official business out of the way. Let’s get ready to ride! Start ‘em up, be safe, look out for one another, and let’s deliver some Christmas cheer!
Thank you, and God bless!

A few key safety points for the ride:
- Ride your own ride. Do not feel pressured to keep up with the bike in front of you. We will have a sweep rider at the back of the pack; no one gets left behind.
- Stay in your lane. We must obey all traffic laws, signals, and speed limits.
- Watch for merging traffic and pedestrians.
- Keep a safe following distance. A staggered formation is recommended.
