Recycle your Cycle in Columbia Missouri

Today's newspaper contained some information that made me contemplate the contents of my garage and my old bike from college that has been sitting unused for longer than I will admit.

Get About Columbia is asking local residents to recycle your bicycle. Do you have a gently-used bicycle that is taking up space in your garage, on your porch or in your basement? Donate it to GetAbout Columbia. They will fix it up and pass it along to families in Columbia who could really use the bicycle. What a wonderful impact this gift can have on our community.

Donated bikes can be dropped off at the GetAbout Columbia office at 101 N. Seventh Street.

For more information on our local program, please visit http://www.getaboutcolumbia.com/
