Maverick Club needs bikes

Maverick Club needs bikes

The Maverick Club has about 20 boys & girls that are participating in a new bicycle program. These kids have been on stationary bikes and treadmills in the gym working on conditioning. Now that we are approaching springtime, Juan Vasquez with the Maverick is trying to get some bikes, both road & mountain, together for the kids that do not have a bike. He is interested in any bike that is FREE and REPAIRABLE. If you have a bike that you would want to donate to the Maverick Club program or if you would be interested in working with these kids at some time, send me a PM or e-mail Juan at jvasquez@maverickclub.org

Juan's goals are to:
    teach them basic bike repair & maintenance
    get them involved in some races
    get them involved in the community
