Each Christmas, the Piedmont Flyers Bicycle Club partners with Clemmons Bicycle, Cycletherapy, Ken’s Bike Shop, Paceline Bicycles, and Mock Orange Bikes to bring smiles to kids in Forsyth County and surrounding counties. Through our Club's proceeds from membership dues, our annual Lewisville Yadkin River Metric Century, and the generous donations of our members and friends, we purchase bike shop quality bicycles at cost and donate new bicycles along with helmets to the WXII 12 Toy Drive in conjunction with the Salvation Army.
We are planning on donating 50 brand new bicycles and
helmets in 2009 through our Bikes For Kids program.
The Piedmont Flyers have enough funding to donate approximately 30 bicycles through our regular activities. We are asking for your help in sponsoring or helping to sponsor one of the remaining 20 bicycles. Or, you can also help by becoming a Piedmont Flyers Bicycle Club member if you have not done so already. If you choose to sponsor the cost of a bicycle and helmet, your PFBC membership dues will be waived for 2010.
· each 12" bicycle and helmet is $125
· each 16" bicycle and helmet is $140
- each 20" bicycle and helmet is $165
If you wish to join us in bringing smiles to kids in the Triad this Christmas, you may take your check made payable to the Piedmont Flyers Bicycle Club to any of the local bike shops listed above or mail a check by December 19th to:
Piedmont Flyers Bicycle Club, P.O. Box 5032, Winston Salem, NC 27113
Please, come and join us on the air Monday, December 21st at 5:00pm WXII 12 at 700 Coliseum Road in Winston Salem as we present the bicycles to the WXII 12 Toy Drive during their 5:00pm news broadcast.
