CLARKSVILLE, In. (WDRB) -- Donate a new bike before they come back down to Earth.

WDRB's Keith Kaiser learned about the "Bikes or Bust" bicycle drive.

Q103.1 Shirley's Way "Bikes or Bust" bicycle drive returns to Kentuckiana for its ninth year on Nov. 21 through the 25.

Over the past eight years, "Bikes or Bust" has collected more than 17,000 new bikes for kids in need throughout Louisville and southern Indiana.

Mike Rowe, Q103.1’s afternoon show host, is living in a scissor lift starting Thursday morning (11/21) at 6 a.m. until Monday morning (11/25).

Southern Indiana’s own “Magic” Mike Benson will join him on a lift of his own.

2 donation locations:

  • Louisville - UAW 862 Union Hall (3000 Fern Valley Rd, Louisville, KY 40213)
  • Clarksville - Coyle Automotive Group (1801 Broadway St, Clarksville, IN 47129)

Each of the new bikes donated in Louisville will go to the Marine Corps Toys for Tots.

Each new bike donated in Indiana will go to the Salvation Army of Southern Indiana.

They will then be distributed to families in need this Christmas.

To donate, people can bring a bike, check, or cash anytime of the day or night to one of the locations.

Bikes or Bust is a partnership between Q103.1, Shirley's Way, Metro United Way, UAW, the Marine Corps Toys for Tots, the Salvation Army of Southern Indiana, and many local business partners.
