Bikes bring health and happiness and sometimes are a valued means of transportation. But for kids in low income communities, bikes can be out of reach. Wish for Wheels, a nonprofit organization, gives you the opportunity to participate in an on-site activity to build brand new bicycles which are then donated to a deserving child. Join the fun (with a bit of competition and team-building thrown in) as you build a bike for donation. You’ll get your chance to ride too as adult-sized big wheels will be available for participants.
