Bike 76 "Cookie Lady" receives check from RABA
Last weekend, some cyclists from Richmond Area Bicycling Association presented June Curry, aka The Cookie Lady, with a check for the donations they had been collecting, as a token of appreciation and to help keep the famous Bike House going. NPR was there and did a nice 3 minute piece.

We'd been having our VBF Fall Retreat last weekend, but we cut it short to go over to the Bike House. I had never seen it before. It's amazing, and so is June Curry, at 87 years old.
Unfortunately the future of the Bike House is uncertain, so we're trying to raise awareness of this and maybe set up a donation system and a fund to help keep it going. Please share this with others. You can use the "share this" link at the end of the article on our website.
