help us make it safer for kids to bike and walk to school. Landry’s Bicycles and
Cannondale are teaming up to help MassBike. From now until May 31—one more
day!—all donations of $50 or above to MassBike will be entered to win a gorgeous
new Cannondale Street bike, donated by Landry's Bicycles of Natick, Westboro,
Norwood, Danvers, and Boston. Your donations will benefit MassBike's Safe Routes
to School initiative, which encourages kids to bike and walk to school safely.
All entries must be received by May 31, 2006. (No purchase is necessary to win.)
The lucky MassBike winner will receive a gift certificate, good at any Landry's
Bicycle store, for the value of the Cannondale Street bike ($899.99). The
certificate is also good toward any Cannondale bike or merchandise at Landry's
store. Thank you for your help and generosity.</FONT></SPAN></P>
