Totally RAD movie night/fundraiser at Bike Pirates

Bike Pirates will be hosting an extra-special event this coming Friday, May 1!

Bike Pirates is a sponsor of the upcoming summer program Charlie's Freewheels, a "Bike building mentorship program for youth from the Regent Park community", and will be hosting two fund-raising and awareness-raising events on their behalf.

The first will be a screening of "Rad", a film about some totally awesome bmx riders from the eighties - how can you lose! There will be snacks and drinks by donation, and as usual the event will be $5/PWYC at the door. All proceeds will go toward the summer program.
Check out Rad here:
