Toys for Tots Ride a Grand Success!

Over 100 riders head North on Mesilla St.

A big thanks to all those cyclists that made it out on December 12^th, 2010 for the Toys for Tots Bicycle Ride! Four large boxes full of toys were collected and a lot of smiles were had. Hats off to Zia Velo for organizing such an event in only THREE DAYS, I know everyone is already looking forward to next year!

After the recent death of Ricardo Duarte, the Mesilla Valley Bike Coalition held a fundraiser to purchase bicycle lights for the Community of Hope in Las Cruces. This past Saturday, coalition members were on hand distributing lights to those in need. Hopefully this will become an annual event and minimize the possibilities of another tragic incident from occurring. We to go MVBC!

Charity Poker Run

A close friend on mine is part of another kind of two-wheeled club, and they have called upon our community to help out. He’s organizing a charity benefit run for Eddie Martinez, a member that is battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia and unfortunately chemotherapy has been ineffective.

It will be on February 28 @ 10:30am at Barnett Harley-Davidson with the last stop being Las Cruces Motorsports. The cost is $10 per person. They are excited at the possibility of including the entire two-wheeled community.

Two words… BEER and PRIZES!
