Everyone has heard the expression 'You never forget how to ride a bike.' And that is a true statement. But the expression 'You never forget the look on a child's face when they get a bike for free that they couldn't otherwise afford' is also a true statement. Need proof? The Eagle Riders of Lapeer can provide it for you.

Where Is It Held?

The event will take place at 3565 Davison Rd. in Lapeer, MI 48446 (just west of the Lake Nepessing Rd. roundabout).

Bikes and helmets of all shapes and sizes will be yours for the picking. They only ask that your child be present at the time of pick-up. And all inventory will be on a first come, first served basis. Also, please be aware that most of these bicycles are used and/or repaired so they are in working order and ready to use. All bikes are free to those in need.
