Last year Pinkbike.com organized cyclists in Operation Share The Ride and gave houndreds of bikes away to kids for Christmas. You as a member of the cycling community can be proud of doing something amazing for society.

This year the're going global. Join and support Operation Share The Ride.

Check out the Share The Ride website find out all about it. www.pinkbike.com/sharetheride

Pinkbike have arranged the best prices, below cost for quality bike products and here is the basic break down when donating.

What can you get a kid?
$5 - Helmet for a kid.
$10 - 2 wheels and rims for a kids bike.
$20 - Bike frame for one kid.
$40 - Full Bike for one kid.
$100 - Large Full Bike and Helmet for bigger kid.

Larger donations allow more kids to get a bike this holiday season.

So even a small donation makes a difference to put a smile on a face.

Nice idea...
it's is a bit like the 'Toy run' that moto riders do every year...

Bikers make a procession with toys strapped on their machines, which they then donate in a huge pile;
a good community event as it brings out all the riders together, as opposed to an anonymous cash donation.
