How it works
-For every $5 donated between Nov 7th, 2013 & Midnight of December 13th, you will earn one chance to win the Trek Remedy 9.7 bike and other listed prizes. So if you donate $25 that is 5 chances at a bunch of prizes.

-We will ship worldwide ... Customs fees and other applicable taxes will be the winner's responsibilities.

Where will your money go?
- $50 is enough to buy one child a new bike and a helmet.
- We are working with community centers, schools, youth and family service programs and established charities to identify children from low income families who will benefit from this gift.
- We are working in locations world wide.
- We aim to ensure that the children receiving these gifts are educated on basic bicycle safety and maintenance.


Head to pinkbike.com/sharetheride for more info or go straight to our Indiegogo page.

LAST DAY - DONATE NOW

Your contribution will not only go towards a helmet and a bike but a new lease on life for a child. Donate what you can and know that you’ll be the difference between an average holiday season and a wheelie, wheelie great one!

Donations will still be accepted on our site after the Indiegogo campaign is complete so we can keep sharing the ride all year round!

 Yoooooo this was such a good idea and tied in perfectly as I really wanted to do something memorable this Christmas/ for my 21st Birthday. I asked everyone who wanted to give me a present to give money which I have collected and now am just about to donate it all plus a little extra from me Big Grin

SERIOUSLY keen to get involved here in the UK - Please let me know. Can't wait to get a bunch of little dudes shredding!

 This is z great charity. Kids need to have fun on a bike. My first bike was found in a farmers field rusted and beat. My parents rebuilt it for me. I'll never forget that feeling and memory. Share the ride!
