Most of us remember learning to ride that first bike? Was it a Banana bike? A ten speed? A mountain bike?Unfortunately, not all kids today in the tri-cities will have that same opportunity. Here’s where we can make a difference. Gather your gently used bikes and the folks at 360 Cycle have committed to shine them up, and make them ‘like new’. Bikes must be in working condition.
Between November 15th and December 15t participating real estate offices of the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver will collect these bikes and partner up with 360 Cycle to refurbish these bikes so that they will be under a Christmas tree to make a local child VERY happy!
The Bike Drive is looking to collect gently used bikes of all shapes and sizes. Refurbished bikes will be distributed through local charities, and community service organizations.
Niki Jacques at 360 Cycle has put out an appeal to our community for donations. Imagine the difference we can make when a single child wakes up on Christmas morning to a ‘new’ bike.
