We had a GREAT summer!  The League of Michigan Bicyclist has featured BikeVON on their homepage, created a youtube video and featured us in the fall issue of the Michigan Bicyclist Magazine.  You can access all those links from the homepage.  Oakland Press featured BileVON in a story.  That link is at the bottom.

The Clinton River Bicyclist Club made a generous donation so we can buy trainers for our 1st winter training.  YEA!  The attachment below Illustrates what a trainer is and how it fits on a bike.  I received 5 new Specialized bikes.  Three bikes with an average price of $848.  From Pricewaterhouse Coopers we received 91 bikes. The Matrix Community Center has donated a room for the class and Madonna Rose, a certified spin instructor, has donated her services. 

YOU can HELP.  We still need transportation.  Please donate you your weekly coffee allowance to our GoFundMe fund raiser or setup a recurring donation at paypal for bikevon14@gmail.com.  It is that easy.
