SCOOTER riders got on their bikes and hit the road last weekend to drive from Lowton to the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, Pendlebury, in the annual great Easter Egg Run.
The enthusiasts, riding Lambretta and Vespa scooters, had a full police escort as they travelled through Leigh, Atherton, Little Hulton, Walkden and Swinton.
Crowds watched as the convoy made its way from Lowton Civic Hall to Pendlebury Hospital on Saturday, laden with goodies for the youngsters.
They arrived at the hospital about an hour later with Easter eggs which they distributed to sick children.
The event was organised by Kevin "Ginger" Lawton, from Atherton.
He organised the first event in 1987 when 150 scooters delivered toys and chocolate eggs to the hospital.
The Easter Egg Run has become a highlight of British scooter clubs' year.
