REI Arcadia Bike Corral Saturday

This Saturday, May 15, 2010, from 10:00am to 2:00pm REI Arcadia is partnering with Bike Oven to collect as many bikes as possible to benefit our mission to serve the community and improve the quality of urban life by promoting and facilitating, through culture change, the use of bicycling as an alternative to the non-sustainable and climate damaging fossil-fuel powered motor vehicle transportation system. Each individual that donates a salvageable used bike will receive a 20% off REI coupon towards the purchase of a full-priced bike and will also be entered to win a raffle prize valued at $100 retail. **Coupons only valid on the dates of the event, exclusion apply. See coupon for details. We will not be accepting kids bikes.**

We’ll be taking the bikes back to the Oven after 2pm and are expecting to bring in a number of better quality bikes to fix up or be sold as is. Come on by if you’d like to help unload the trailer or check out the great deals to be had.

Saturday we’ll be open our normal hours, 1-4pm, but Sunday we’re going to be open 10am-4pm (a extra hours in the morning for any early birds looking for a deal).

Check out the REI site for more details on donating! http://www.rei.com/event/5703/session/6911
