Jingle Bells, Bicycle Spells: The Santa Rampage Ride

Ho, ho, hold onto your handlebars! It's time for Rochester's most whimsical winter spectacle - the Toys for Tots Santa Rampage Ride! Picture this: a tinsel-trimmed peloton of pedaling Santas, their beards flowing in the brisk Minnesota breeze, embarking on a merry mission of yuletide cheer.

Born from the big heart of Ron Moffit and his band of merry elves, this festive phenomenon has been decking the halls (and streets) of Rochester for years. It's not just a ride; it's a rolling winter wonderland, a two-wheeled sleigh parade that would make Rudolph jealous!

Each year, we call all cycling Clauses to join our jolly journey. We gather at our designated North Pole basecamp before unleashing a tornado of tinsel upon downtown Rochester. Expect wide-eyed wonder from onlookers as our Santa squad snakes through the city, bike racks and backpacks bulging with toys for tots.

Our final destination? A local Toys for Tots drop-off point, where we'll deliver our donated treasures faster than you can say "dash away all!" It's a chance to pedal with purpose, spread joy like confetti, and make the season bright for kids in need.

So, polish those sleigh bells, oil those chains, and dust off your best Santa suit. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just elf-curious, there's room for everyone in this festive fleet. Don't have a Santa suit? No worries! Just bring your holiday spirit and a toy to donate.

Join us for a day of camaraderie, charity, and two-wheeled yuletide shenanigans. It's more than a bike ride; it's a chance to be part of Rochester's living, breathing, pedaling Christmas card. Let's fill the streets with so much Christmas spirit, even the Grinch would crack a smile!

Remember: At Santa Rampage, we don't just ride bikes - we sleigh all day! So saddle up your reindeer (or your trusty two-wheeler), and let's jingle all the way to a merrier Christmas for all!
