“It's a fantastic event. We've been doing this for almost 20 years in the Roanoke Valley area,” Johnson said.

The Roanoke Valley Harley Owners group partners with the U.S. Marines to help the Toys for Tots program.

After the bikers filled up all the bins with toys, Moon Mullins, dressed as Santa, led the way for an hourlong bike parade.

“I think we got a good tight community,” Mullins said.

 Organizers said nearly 500 bikers showed up for the ride.
