Looking for a calendar of hot boys for your home or office (or wherever people put calendars of scantily clad boys up?) Sure- it’s February, but that doesn’t mean you don’t need a calendar for the rest of the year right?
Pedalfresh is a cool project connecting bikes with fresh water. Proceeds from the calendar go toward Border Green Energy Team (BGET). The calendar will more specifically fund a water filtration system for a Burmese refugee school.
Of course since you get the calendar for free I’d encourage you to donate to this worthy cause on your own… The lady of this house has her Bike Boys of Portland calendar already and one is enough for our home. If you don’t win- I encourage you to check out the project and donate to support the cause.
You can see more about PedalFresh and the bike boys at Pedalfresh.com
How do you win? Leave an original haiku in the comment section of this post. Bonus points if it has to do anything with the calendar (that means bikes, boys or fresh water) Simple right? And you CAN enter more than one. Let your creativity flow forth.
The winner will be contacted via email and sent this calendar to do with what they wish.
This was about 10 years prior to Seattle having it’s time as the number one bicycle city in the US according to Bicycling Magazine.
Happy Humpday.
Worth watching. Do families need cars? Let your imagination be your transportation.
Good things are happening in Rivas, Nicaragua.

I wonder what effect this would have on citizens in the US?
Thanks Mike-
You know how it goes. Sometimes you leave the house and you forget your pants lights. Here’s a little tutorial, in case you get caught with your pants down.

Bicycles for Humanity is grassroots organization who’s goal is “empowering people to improve their quality of life by transferring mobility through the use of bicycles.”
Ryan contacted me about a project he’s doing with Seattle Works to help out B4H’s efforts in Africa. Seattle Works is looking for volunteers to help load bicycles into a cargo container that will then be Africa-bound. They need volunteers on Saturday March 12th from 9am-12pm. The volunteer effort is being put on by Seattle Works- and you need to be registered with them before you just show up, so GO HERE to find out more information about this opportunity.
You don’t need to be a mechanic to help out, the volunteers will be doing really straight forward tasks that are easy to learn, such as turning handlebars and removing pedals. Volunteers then pack the container. The bicycles are being collected during multiple bike drives conducted by several Rotary Clubs in the Seattle area.
The work will be done in Seattle. Contact the project coordinator, Ryan Stickney for more info.
You can also check out other great community projects that Seattle Works is a part of while you’re there.
