2005 marks a return to Montreal and a fresh buzz surrounding Expocycle, the official Canadian Bike Show. Here at Kona, we've been getting excited for the chance to raise money for the Canadian office of the International Mountain Bike Association.

2005 has also been a year of unrest in the world of mountain bike advocacy. Insurance, Trail Access, and Potential Mass Closures have all attacked the sport that we all love, and the main force fighting these problems is IMBA. The International Mountain Bike Association has fought to keep mountain biking alive and well in a world of Public Liability, Land Development, and Fear of the Unknown.

But IMBA needs your help. What better way to do that then to go bowling!.... Yeah, I know, it sounds weird, but get your team of four together, sign up and come on down to Sharx Bar on Saturday Sept 17th for a raging night of bowling, booze, and benefits... all going towards a worthy cause. The trails you ride every day are being kept alive by IMBA and their local sister organizations. Come on out and have a blast all while raising cash for a good cause.

Doors open at 8:30pm, Bowling starts at 9pm. To register your team of four, please email Matt at ms@konaworld.com. Your reservation will be confirmed with the receipt of a cheque for $150.00 sent to the IMBA Canada office. Sharx bar is a 5 minute cab ride from the Bonaventure over at 1606 Ste-Catherine ST.

Here's where you can send your reservation donation (Hey...that rhymes!) KONA/IMBA Buck-A-Bowl P.O. Box 404
