sale.

The sale will be during Free Cycles' normal operating hours: 10am to
6pm, Tuesday thru Saturday.  A special kick-off sale day barbecue will be
held on Friday July 28th at 4pm.  As an extra bonus, there is a free
theater play being put on that evening by a group touring Montana by
bike.

community.  The main programs are Open Shop, Build a Bike and BikeWell
