 One local bike shop is taking part in a statewide movement to get kids outside and active. Tourite in Little Falls is collecting old child and adult-sized bicycles that will then be refurbished and given away to kids all across the state. The shop hopes to keep old bike parts out of the landfill instead reuse them to keep kids active. The owners go above and beyond to collect old bikes all year long to fix up and then donate to the Little Falls Boys and Girls Club. It's important to get the kids to exercise and out of in front of a screen. That's part of why I like to ride a bike and get kids on a bike. It's good for your mental health. It's good for your physical health. It's good all the way around riding the bike for people of all ages. Tourite will continue to accept donations for the free bikes for kids organization until April 28th.
