Going for a nice, relaxing ride on your motorcycle took on new meaning Saturday when more than 150 motorcycles roared off from the Rountree-Moore Toyota dealership, hop- ing to raise food, clothing and toys for the Christian Service Center. The Riders with Caring Hearts Christmas Toy ride began around 10 a.m. at Rountree-Moore auto dealership, which was the corporate sponsor, as motorcycles began to fill the parking area. The entry fee for the event was $10 per bike, an unwrapped toy and a non-perishable food item for the event that was set to begin at noon.

NBut the Columbia High Tigers, who fell 28-21 to Navarre in the Panhandle on Friday, gave us all something to cheer about this season. Whatever else folks may have disagreed on over the last few months, the Tigers brought us togeth- er and gave us a common cause. What a great year. What a great group. And what a great coach. Top Tiger Brian Allen has considerable teaching skills. And not just in football. While inspiring his team to win, he has instilled in them lessons of even greater importance: The value of hard work, perseverance and refusal to give up, no matter how tough the task.
