December Newsletter
Dear Friends,
We are all a part of Recycle-A-Bike, run on 100% volunteer participation. Be an enabler this month, take 15 minutes of your time to ask family and friends to donate to Recycle-A-Bike as their holiday gift to you. They will definitely appreciate the opportunity to demonstrate their generosity without having to submit to compulsive consumer tendencies this holiday season!
In Olneyville, 41% of families don’t own a vehicle. Together we can bring the gift of independent mobility to our neighborhood in 2012. Sincerest thanks for your support. Make your donation today…
Holiday Bicycles
Bicycles are a classic look next to your holiday tree…With the holidays fast approaching, get your special someone a bike from your favorite Providence recyclers! All the money from your purchase goes back into our programs to promote bicycling in Providence. We have handcrafted balance bikes for toddlers, cute kids bikes, and refurbished adult bikes…and, hello?!, what’s more exciting then a bicycle with a bow under your holiday tree?!.
Holiday Halt
The shop will be closed December 18th through January 6th for the holidays. Get bundled and come on over NOW!
Open Shop
We’re here Tuesdays 5-8pm and Saturday 9am-2pm until the Holiday Halt. When we reopen after the holidays, we’ll be focusing our volunteer efforts on improving the shop space and replenishing our bike parts stash. Stay tuned. This will be our first winter in a warm space!
Winter Build-A-Bike
Don’t bother them!…With only 2 weeks left, the build-a-bikers are hardcore toiling. Getting deep into the inner workings of their fresh rides, RAB mechanics-in-training are wrenching fast with Jedi mechanics, Patrick and Nik, to get bicycles built in time for the cold front.
