Got an unused bike (or parts)? Donate at ‘Wine and Bikes’

No, it’s not about pedaling under the influence. Bicycles for Humanity Seattle and the Northwest Wine Academy are teaming up on November 19th to collect donated bikes/parts at an event also featuring the fall release of four new student-created wines: 2009 Cabernet Franc, 2009 Merlot, 2010 Chardonnay and 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon. Set your reminder for noon-5 pm on the 19th, South Seattle Community College, 6000 16th SW. The bikes go to South Africa, for villagers to use for work-related transportation in an area where 1 in 2 are unemployed; all types of bikes are welcome – mountain and road bikes, adult bikes, kids’ bikes.

  1. Can bikes be dropped off somewhere else and on another day if we are not in town on the 19th?

  2. Ooops! Misread the headline and thought it said “Whine and bikes”. Thought it might be more discourse on that subject but this is a much better story.

  3. Bikes can be dropped off on Friday, the 18th at the Northwest Wine Academy, or watch the Bicycles for Humanity Seattle website (www.b4hs.org) for future bike drives. Thanks for asking!!!
