Our friends at Center Street Cycles have taken delivery of our Riding For Focus bikes, and they are wasting no time getting them built! I'll be heading over to Brunswick to pick up the first batch this afternoon. I'll plan to record each of their serial numbers and then work with Elliot, my RFF Student Ambassador to number them for easy identification. Once students are correctly sized to a bike, that will be "their" bike for the duration of each six-week session. It's so exciting to finally get this ball rolling. Thank you Specialized!
The Specialized Foundation uses cycling as a tool for children to achieve academic, health and social success. Through investments in primary scientific medical research and school-based cycling programs, our mission is to increase accessibility to cycling to aid youth in personal development and education. In 2017, Bath Middle School was one of twenty schools in the United States to receive the Riding For Focus grant.
