March of the Moles Benefit Ride Congratulates Avery West!

Congratulations to Avery West who won our Kona Africa Bike as part of the March of the Moles raffle to benefit the Kona Bike Town Africa Program. The bike was donated by Kona and is the same bike that is sent to Africa (currently in Uganda)for health care workers to use in transporting HIV/AIDS medications to patients.

We had about 50 cyclists who joined in a 21 mile ride on what turned out to be the most gorgeous day in March! The ride had challenging hills, lots of food at our rest stops, and beautiful scenery. Thanks to everyone who participated! We look forward to a bigger ride next year.

Special thanks to the sponsoring groups that helped make this event happen: Jack's Bicycle Center, Kona Bikes, Mt. Baker Bicycle Club, EveryBody Bike, and Fairhaven Bicycle Racing Team. You are awesome!
