Harley-Davidson Christmas Ride 2016 took place on Dec 24, when over 70 Harley-Davidson motorcycles travelled together to Yi'oulai Suzhou Village by Yangcheng Lake, adding different color to the Christmas festival.

On the afternoon of Dec 24, about 70 Harley-Davidson owners, dressed in red-and-white Christmas costumes and wearing Christmas hats with the words "Dream Comes True" on them, departed from Harley-Davidson exhibition hall and rode for 30-plus kilometers to the destination.

"We ride to share love and fun," said Hong Jie, organizer of the event. This is the fourth year the Christmas ride has been held. As the event gets more popular and influential, over 70 motorcycles joined this year's fleet, 30 more than last year.

In the dressed-up Santa Claus team, there were cute and naughty kids, sociable couples and foreigners who are knowledgeable of Christmas culture. 

Overseas student Mo Yiding has lived in China for five years and speaks fluent Chinese. He likes riding his favorite Harley-Davidson motorcycle to enjoy the fun with other enthusiasts on festivals. "Christmas atmosphere has been quite good in Suzhou in recent years," smiled Mo. 

As a motorcycle lover, Chen Hanmin took his wife along so that they could feel the charm of traditional western culture together. He said that an event like this could not only relieve his pressure, but also give him a good time with family and friends. 

The Christmas event came to an end after two hours of happy ride.
