🇺🇸🏍️ 15 DAYS UNTIL KICKSTANDS UP! 🏍️🇺🇸

The countdown is getting REAL!

Just 15 days from today, we'll come together for the 2026 Hand Up, Stand Up - Ride —a day of riding, fellowship, community, and most importantly, supporting the veterans receiving care through our local VA and veterans right here in Northeast Kansas.

This ride is truly a Legion Family effort. Members of Topeka American Legion Post 421, Sons of the American Legion Squadron 421, and American Legion Auxiliary Unit 421 work side-by-side to make it happen, along with volunteers, riders, businesses, donors, sponsors, friends, families, and supporters from throughout our community.

And remember—you DO NOT have to ride a motorcycle to be part of Hand Up Stand Up! Bring your car, truck, Jeep, any road legal vehicle and join us for the day. Come see us, check out the raffle and silent auction items, spend some time with some great people, and help us make a difference for our veterans.

We've spent months getting ready.

Now we're down to 15 DAYS.
