5% of Sales to Rwanda at Two Wheel
Our good friends at Two Wheel Transit We are pleased to announce that 5% of the sales price of any 2011 Trek bicycle purchased from January 3 through February 15 will be donated by the shop to Project Rwanda. If you know of anyone considering a new bike, please make them aware of this worthy project!
Project Rwanda provides special cargo bikes in the form of a micro loan to Rwandan coffee farmers with 300 trees or less. These bikes make a significant contribution to the quality of life of these industrious farmers. To date the shop has raised enough for 2 bikes from donations and matching from Two Wheel Transit.
There is currently a “coffee bike” on display on the sales floor as a way to demonstrate this program. Ck it out.
New Year
Celebrate this day and the new year!
Holidays
Open tomorrow, Thursday, and closed Fri and Sat. Happy holidays!
Bike: Parts Labeled
This typogram came by way of Barb Chamberlain and originally from the LA Bike Coalition. Love it
Thanksgiving
We can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since our new shop opened, and man are we thankful for all that we’ve been able to do this year, and all we’ve been able to help at our new location.
On that note, we will be closed on Thanksgiving weekend–Th, Fri, Sat–to spend time with our families and take a little break.
Warming Up
With the weather warming up, you might be getting ready to ride more. Looking for something different? We have a nice, lightweight Bridgestone road bike from the 80’s. Also a Chicago-made, Columbus tubing, Schwinn frame set waiting to be built into a bike. Stop by our shop this week and check out the new stuff.

30 Cyclists This Morning
We counted 30 cyclists on their bikes this morning from our post at 25th and High Drive–awesome! After feeding the commuters, I went to Wilson Elementary and distributed the remaining Cliff Bars to students who rode their bikes, skateboards, or razors. Beautiful morning, and a we were thrilled to see so many people on their wheels.
Thanks to BTWSpokane and Cliff Bar for providing some treats!
Data Entry Volunteer Needed!
Pedals2People is looking for someone to help us with data entry. This volunteer opportunity would take approx. 6 hrs a month, would need to be done at the shop during open hours (during classes or when the shop is open), and would be a tremendous help to our org! Keeping accurate records is a critical part of running a nonprofit, and this job has gotten bigger since we’ve grown into our new space this year.
If you like data entry and would like to help a local nonprofit, please send us an email: pedals2people@gmail.com!
