A spectacular Mauchline-based motor cycle club combined to raise almost £4,000 for children in hospital.
Hillbillies Motor Cycle Club (MCC) took to the roads on Saturday for a spectacular display, supported by hundreds of people lining the streets.
As part of their annual Easter run in aid of the Crosshouse Hospital children's unit, the amazing club raised a total of £3,807.

Setting off from Mauchline, plenty oflocals were out to give the bikers a wave as they headed for Crosshouse Hospital.
After their ride, they headed over to Ayr to give their backing to another charity event.
Delighted MMC treasurer Bryan Fleming said: "At the weekend Hillbillies MCC Ayrshire welcomed friends, family and the biking community to join us in raising funds for Crosshouse Children’s Fund.

"With the support of all we managed to raise a massive £3,807 for the fund, for which we are humbly grateful.

"After the event most of the bikers went on down to Ayr to support Rock the Nile, raising further funds for Crohn's & Cholitis UK.
"All at our club would like to thank the many who supported this amazing achievement - including Dayn and his family, in addition to our own Ross's gran, who personally raised £1,200 towards our total."
