4th Annual Bikes For Tots
We will be purchasing a cool bike to donate on behalf of the Coasters to this cause. If you would like to donate you can do so through PayPal below or donate to me in person.
I will be at the Shamrock Thursday the 13th accepting donations. Even if you don’t ride that night please come by if you would like to contribute. Any little bit will help plus you get to ride in the parade!
Edit: We are through accepting donations. Thanks!
Bikes For Tots is an organization that collects new bicycles to give to the Salvation Army and local Police who then give these bikes to kids in need at Christmas time. The Coasters have been asked if we’d like to contribute.
We’ve also been asked to participate in the Bikes for Tots Parade on Saturday, December 6th at 2:00pm. The parade starts at the Seneca Street Bar and Grill and ends at Club DebRicks on South Broadway (approx 2 miles). Meet at 1:30pm at the Seneca Street Bar and Grill.
Erick Support Cruise
Tonight we met up at Century II and rode as a group to the Shamrock as a gesture of support for our friend Erick and his battle against cancer. At the Shamrock we had pizza except for Erick who had fish as the pizza had all been eaten by the time he arrived.

2nd Annual Christmas Lights Cruise – December 11th
Meet at the Shamrock at 7:00pm. After a beverage we’ll head West instead of the usual East and ride to and through the Lights On St Paul Christmas lights display. This is about a 1 mile ride from the Shamrock.
The lights shut down at 9:00pm so we’ll need to leave promptly.
After we’ll head back East and stop at the Vagabond for a warm drink if needed. Then on to Downtown and Old Town to check out the lights there.
Plan to ride no matter what the weather.
Decorate yourself and/or your bike if you like.
