December 14, 2014 - NGO No Limit Bikers from Podgorica began preparations for the IX humanitarian action Moto Santa Claus. Bikers will meet 60 children without parental care, residents of Children’s Home Mladost in Bijela. Moto Santa Claus participants plan to visit the children on 22 December at noon.
One of the organizers of the action Moto Santa Claus, Marko Radulović said for Radio Jadran that participation has so far confirmed 80 "recreational" bikers, who are not members of any Moto club. As in previous years, in addition to the club No Limit Biker, the action was supported by several motorcycle clubs from Montenegro, including the Herceg Novi club MC Cruiser:
"There will probably be between 200-250 bikers. Last year there were more than 200. The action is growing every year, and it has not happened that there were less than 150. The participation confirmed all the most active Moto Clubs - MK Bar, MK Pirates, MK Night Wolves, MK Lions from Kotor and others," says Radulovic.
They will prepare New Year’s gift packages for children, but kids will also get new clothes, footwear, underwear, pajamas, warm winter shoes, and other necessities. The bikers provide these gifts with their donations, but also with the help of numerous friends and sponsors. After nearly a decade, Radulovic estimates that it is an action that has "come out of all the Montenegrin patterns":
"The action, first of all, carries a lovely message and has a significant effect. In the words of the director of the Children’s House Mladost, we are always most welcomed guests. We need much effort to encourage sponsors to participate, give a discount, gift. Gratitude and joy of children come as a reward for our efforts."
Most of Moto Santa Claus participants will meet in Podgorica. At Petrovac they will meet with motorists from Bar, Ulcinj, and Sutomore. At the Luk Oil gas station on Jaz bikers from Budva wait to join. With the Tivat and Kotor’s crew, the Moto Santa Claus caravan will meet on the ferry. Herceg Novi’s bikers will traditionally wait for the others in Kamenari, from where they start the city promenade. The plan is to arrive at the Children's Home around noon, but everything will depend on weather conditions and traffic intensity.
Next year, the Moto Santa Claus action celebrates its tenth jubilee edition, and No Limit Bikers will try to enlarge it by also visiting the children in the Home for Children with Special Needs in Zabjelo, announced Radulovic.
