For nearly 20 years, the Gainesville Cycling Club has contributed to the annual "Christmas Bike Program"  in which the Gainesville Police Department gives bikes to underprivledged children in the public schools.

 

This year the Gainsville Cycling Club can contribute in two ways:

 

1)  Collect children's size bikes for the program.  In particular, bikes with 20 inch wheels and bikes with 24 inch wheels are needed.  All bikes and bike parts are useful.   If you are at a yard sale and you see a good kid bike for a few dollars, consider buying it as a donation. 

 

2)  Help us fix bikes for the Christmas program.  This year, Gainesville Cycing Club members can help fix kids bikes at "The Kickstand"       Chandler will be there on Fridays,  3-6 p.m.    

 

We are just starting this Friday, so don't bring any bikes for a week or two.  But please come visit or e-mail me with ideas and suggestions.
