FROM THE EDITOR
As you know, bikers are some of the most generous people in the world, which is quite obvious just by taking a look back at all the charity rides and events that took place in 2009. This past year alone, the Cycle Connections team covered more than 30 charity rides and events, many of which we helped sponsor and promote. Covering events such as these gives you a nice warm feeling deep inside to help you get through those long cold winter nights.
The year isn’t over yet, so you still have time to help those in need. Whether it’s a donation of food, clothing, or a portion of your hard-earned cash, every little bit helps, especially during this time of the year. It’s also a great time to volunteer your time, which is invaluable during the holiday season and throughout the entire year.
On behalf of the entire Cycle Connections crew, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
