Mikes Bike Shop to Host Bike Drive on Oct. 27
Mikes Bike Shop hosts the annual Pedal Power bike drive to reward Chicago Public School students for making the honor roll.
The 2018 Pedal Power Bike Drive will be held at Mikes Bike Shop in Palatine and at 9 other Chicagoland locations on Saturday October 27 from 9am until noon. This is a bike drive to benefit the hard-working students in the Chicago Public Schools. Donated bikes are given to students as a reward for earning good grades and for making the honor roll. Since its inception in 2008, Pedal Power has collected close to 3,000 bikes and the program has proven to be an excellent incentive for CPS students.
