Parade will proceed rain or shine. The Parade is all motorcycles, so no slipping the clutch behind a slow-moving group on foot. We'll cover the 4.6 mile route at a 20-25mph pace, led by a firetruck with Santa atop and escorted by Police motorcycles.

Riders are encouraged to decorate their bikes with Christmas Lights and decorations within the limits of safe operation and wear Christmas attire, again within limits of safety and requirements for safety equipment, such as helmets. Prizes will be awarded in several categories (please stay tuned - we'll add these soon!) Be sure to attach the toy to be donated securely to your bike, but ideally in a way that it shows for the parade. Toys and cash donations will be collected by Marines waiting at City Dock.

Registration fee is $10 per bike, regardless of number of riders, but additional donations are welcome. All fees go directly to U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots for use in Anne Arundel County. Registration forms and fees will be collected the morning of the parade at Chesapeake Cycles, 104 Defense Hwy, Annapolis, MD from 9AM to 11:30 AM. Please let us know in advance you will be joining in by joining this event on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/events/495891303918587/ to give us an idea of how many bikes to expect.

Parade line-up will be in the front parking rows in front of the strip shopping center at 2134 Generals Highway (behind Chesapeake Cycles). We will have volunteers on hand to direct you beginning at 9AM. If you are part of a group that wants to ride together, please try to arrive together. Chesapeake Cycles will have free refreshments on hand for the registrants. Come early to socialize and enjoy the rest of the bikes in the parade!
