Hundreds of bikers with big hearts will be on a mission roaring across the area over the next couple of weekends delivering toys. Motorcycle toy runs are scheduled in Abilene, and Salina.

The 27th Annual Abilene Motorcycle Toy Run is this coming Sunday, November 17th. Riders will depart from the Lumber House True Value parking lot at 2:00 p.m.  Riders are encouraged to bring new toys for distribution to needy children.  All toys and cash contributions will be donated to Abilene Toys 4 Tots.

A similar toy run motorcycle ride will be held in Salina the following weekend, on Sunday November 24th. The 38th Salina Toy Run will leave from the Central Mall at 2:00 in the afternoon. The toy run will end at the Emmanuel Church on E. Cloud Street.

Toys collected during the Salina event will be donated to Ashby House and Domestic Violence Association of Central Kansas.

Several hundred riders are expected at each event.
