In honor of the Bicycle Film Festival this year, PUMA sponsored a challenge to some leading magazines.  Each team had a budget of $200 and had to use recycled parts to make a bicycle that depicted their magazine's personality.  Perhaps you had the chance to check out the bicycles on display in New York City during the Bicycle Film Festival.  Well, they are now available for auction on E-Bay!  All proceeds will be donated to youth bicycle charities in each of the North American cities from the film tour. Recycle-A-Bicycle will benefit!  Click here to learn more, see the bikes and place your bid!
