Bikes or Bust officially kicks off at Uptown Station

DJ Bo Reynolds is going up in the lift this year for a solid 98 hours!

I’m sure you’ve seen all of the Bikes or Bust videos that Get The Coast has been releasing with Jason Carducci. (If not, no worries. I’ve included a playlist at the bottom of this article…)

Well, Bikes or Bust officially kicks off at Uptown Station on Thursday, November 30th at 11am and goes until Monday, December 4th at noon.

Radio Station Highway 98.1 Country will be collecting new bikes and helmets for kids in need

DJ Bo Reynolds will go up on a scissor lift 30 feet in the air and will spend 98 hours SOLID up there. He’ll be broadcasting live and encouraging the community to come out to Uptown Station and donate bikes.

The goal is to get 1,000 bikes and they’ll go straight to Emerald Coast Toys for Tots to distribute to kids this Christmas.

Volunteers are needed for this event to help collect, organize, and assemble the bikes! Head over to the Bikes or Bust Facebook page for volunteer info.
