On the evening of October 27th, about 80 people gathered at the Provo Bicycle Collective to ride their bikes. However, instead of dressing in casual clothing or athletic gear, this group decked themselves out in tuxedos and gowns. It was Prom night in Provo; Bike Prom, that is!
Bike Prom is an annual fundraising event consisting of a casual ride around town and a dance. All proceeds go to the Bicycle Collective to be used for their charitable programs.
This year’s event featured a 5-mile ride around downtown and the pioneer neighborhoods and ended at the Startup Building were the dance was held.
The event drew nearly 100 participants and raised $340 dollars, enough to provide six underprivileged people with a free Goodwill Bike from Provo Bicycle Collective.

Thanks to all who attended and we hope to see more people next year!
