The proceeds from the event were given to GiGi&#8217;s Playhouse Indianapolis to provide participants with the opportunity to learn how to ride a strider bike! The motorcycle event was such a hit that the event still took place during the COVID-19 pandemic back in June and was successful.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-127438 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes-300x277.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"195\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes-300x277.png 300w, https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes-1024x944.png 1024w, https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes-768x708.png 768w, https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes-1536x1416.png 1536w, https:\/\/gigisplayhouse.org\/indianapolis\/files\/2020\/09\/Strider-Bikes.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 195px) 100vw, 195px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; During the week of September 14th, 10 participants learned how to properly ride a strider bike!
