BOULDER, Colo. — It’s a bad week to be a stationary bike in Boulder.
Specifically, the stationary bike that will be outside of the University Memorial Center (UMC) Fountain on the University of Colorado at Boulder (CU) campus from November 2 to November 8.
Members of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity, also known as Pike, will ride that stationary bike for 8,423 minutes straight in honor of cyclists and pedestrians who have been killed on the road nationwide. The philanthropic event is called Pike on a Bike, and the goal is to raise $100,000 for The White Line Foundation.
“We were talking in our basement. Every single year, we do a philanthropy event; one way or another, we’re raising money for something. And what better way to give back to our community and to our dear friend, Magnus?” Graydon Abel, a member of Pike, explained. “By supporting The White Line, it’s supporting an issue bigger than just Magnus.”
The White Line Foundation is a nonprofit organization started by Jill and Michael White, Magnus White’s parents.
