My son bought 2 stuffed bears for donation to the toy run. When and where can we get them to you for distribution?
Phil,
Food and Toy Run donations can be dropped off at the Northern Mines building at the Nevada County Fairgrounds. The building is located near back entrance (Gate 4) on Friday, Dec. 7th, between 4-6:30p.m. (Look for a bunch of cars parked around the building, as we will be there setting up for Saturday’s event). Or you can drop off on Saturday morning around 11:00a.m. just before the Toy Run starts.
Thank you so much for your care and donation!

Looking for info on the ride, and where to get the t-shirts and pins. we will be there, for the ride. But would like to purchase the pins and t-shirts now if possable. ( Nevada County Food and Toy Run) Thanks ; Billy and Virginia
Hi Virginia,
You can order T-shirts and pins here on the website — just click the orange DONATE button and let us know the number of shirts and pins you’d like to purchase. Be sure to include sizes too and we will send them to you. T-shirts are $25 each, pins are $5, and $10 for shipping the whole order. If you live in the area you can pick up your order, just let us know when placing your order.
Basically the ride starts at the Rood Center in Nevada City and ends at the Fairgrounds 5 miles away. Here is the link to route map.
Glad to hear that you’ll be joining us this year!

The Auburn moose riders will be coming – should be a great day.
Glad you can make it!
Wanted to attend your event for years, but work has always got in the way. I’m really hoping to make it out this year. I currently hold the motorcycle world land speed record (world’s fastest motorcycle) at 376 mph with a top speed of 394. Don’t know if having a local semi-celeb in the motorcycle community would be a benefit. Love what you guys are doing. Me and my wife (Tricia) are planning to attend for the first time this year. Excited to see the kids faces and meet with fellow motorcyclists.
