On April 6th, Plainsboro held our first ever bike drive in support of the Boys and Girls Club of Mercer County’s Bike Exchange program (BEX). BEX, led by volunteers, repairs donated bicycles and sells them for a modest price at their shop in Ewing, New Jersey – which is open to the public. All proceeds from the sale of bikes benefit the Boys and Girls Clubs of Mercer County. Plainsboro residents donated 72 bicycles, 5 scooters, 1 skateboard and a tricycle. Thank you to all who donated!

The bicycles will be repaired, if needed, and resold to benefit the Boys and Girls Club of Mercer County.
