Every year on this weekend the population descends on Geelong's waterfront for carnival fun. Here you can see the local Harley Club collecting donations for the Toy Ride and showing off their bikes. The locals will tell you that this event used to be a sight to see. In the old days rides extended all along the beach area, whereas today it's only a handful of rides and a couple of tents (still looked pretty sizable to me - almost 3x the size of any Mills Mansion festival.). There was also a water ski show and a Nickelodeon hosted game show where kids got SLIMMED. Old school! Maybe a smaller scale than people would like, but it still made for a good day in the sun. I have the burns to prove it. I'm moving "hat" and "sunscreen" up the list of priorities.
