Motorcycle enthusiasts are invited to gear up for the 17th Annual Toy Run Saturday.

People can register from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at The Panhead in Marcus for the Independent Riders for Children and Charities (IRCC) event.

The group will leave The Panhead at 1 p.m., ride through the area and end up at the Icky Nickel, in Sioux City.

The entry fee is $10 and a new toy for a child. Anyone can participate in the Toy Run or join the IRCC for a $5 annual fee.

Last year the IRCC collected five tables of new toys, which were donated to the Le Mars Head Start Program in December. Head Start workers gave the toys to parents of children in the program so the parents could give them as gifts.

"It's always fun to see big, burly tattooed men in leather walk up the street carrying a teddy bear," said Randall "Snowman" Luschen, an IRCC member.

The Toy Run is a group ride.

Instead of participants traveling at their own pace and meeting at the end, everyone will ride together from one stop to the next.
