Let's help them. Right now.

Very special SPONSOR NEWS from a very special sponsor:

Be The Change Yoga & Wellness - a donation-based yoga and wellness studio in San Jose that gifts classes to homeless women and does other wonderful things - sponsored Cranksgiving San Jose last year with 10 free classes we were able to give away as a prize last year. Months ago, we had asked if they wanted to sponsor again and their amazing manager Taraneh Sarrafzadeh immediately agreed.

What happened between that day and today is the rent at Be The Change's downtown San Jose location (pictured) skyrocketed - and the studio is moving to 947 Park Avenue in San Jose on Nov. 5 - just a mile and a half from where they are now. Even though this is an expensive and disruptive time...they STILL are stepping up and sponsoring us this year!

The teachers and students we've met at Be The Change are the kind of people ourselves or our kids will grow up to be. The work they do in our community matters and they stepped up for us. Now let's do the same for them: the place that gives so much help to others could use a little to come back their way, so let's flood the BTC GoFundMe campaign to help cover the expenses of their move! We can balance an entire Thanksgiving Dinner on a tiny Dahon - we CAN help our friends move. Please donate now and share!

Always fun to exhibit at the Silicon Valley Bikes: Our History & A Festival in History San José! Said hello to friends at Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition and made new ones at Two Diamond Fit.
