Used Bicycle Collection (Sewing machines too)

Bikesport teams up with Pedals for Progress for our annual used bike collection!  Pedals for Progress (www.p4p.org) takes used kids and adult bikes, ships them to developing areas of South America and other locations around the world, and also partners with these cities to develop bike shops (including training) to maintain the bikes.  We're hoping to collect 100 bikes this year.  Won't you help us?  Feel free to drop off bikes Friday, 11/11 from 10-8 or Saturday 11/12 from 10-5, as well as during the Sunday actual collection date.  Please note that P4P also requires a minimum $10 donation with every bike to help offset the rising cost of shipping.
