Dust off your bikes because it’s time for the WindsorEats
annual Bikes & Beer Cycling Tour - Returns
for Leukemia!
WindsorEats is hosting their annual Bikes & Beer Cycling Tour - Returns for Leukemia on May 25th
2013. The cycling tour will stop at three local Windsor establishments:
Walkerville Brewery, Motor Burger, and Rock Bottom Bar & Grill. The
starting location will be The Beer Store on Walker Rd and Ypres.
Returns for Leukemia Bottle Drive is
part of a month long effort to raise money for Returns
for Leukemia, a fundraiser held each May by United Food & Commercial
Workers (UFCW) Local 12R24 in partnership with The Beer Store to raise funds
for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada (LLSC). On the weekend of May 25 & 26,
2013, customers are invited to donate all or a portion of their empty bottles
(or cash), with 100% of the proceeds going directly to The Leukemia &
Lymphoma Society of Canada. Participants of Bikes and Beers are also
encouraged to bring along their empties on the day of the ride to donate to the
Returns For Leukemia Bottle Drive.
"We're very excited that
this fundraiser has become an annual tradition, raising thousands of dollars
for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada," says Adriano Ciotoli,
co-owner of WindsorEats. "It provides people the opportunity to give to a
great cause all while having a good time."
Each location will host a
brewer and participants will be provided with beer tastings and appetizers.
This year the ride will be visiting Rock Bottom Grill, Motor Burger and
Walkerville Brewery and includes sponsor Steam Whistle.
The Bikes & Beers Cycling
Tour includes a support guide, beer tastings, appetizers at restaurants and tours through some of the city’s historic neighbourhoods and landmarks.
Tickets are $45 compared to the traditional price of $60 each with
