BELOW IS A THANK YOU FLYER
Inner City Cycling Connection, Inc. (IC3) is a grass roots not for profit organization developed to promote and educate our inner city population about cycling and its many rewards. The organization grew out of a request by the community leaders organizing the Martin Luther King Jr parade and celebration in Los Angeles, California. For the benefit of the community, IC3 created an exciting bicycle race that took place before each parade.
IC3 believes every child deserves a chance to strive for a positive future filled with endless opportunities regardless of their circumstances. Many inner city youths are not being given that chance. They are focusing their energies on drugs, gangs, and other caustic behavior early in life.

Inner City Cycling Connection, Inc. (IC3) offers a healthy alternative sport activity that encourages physical fitness and safety. Our organization teaches the youths of today integrity, moral commitment, and a sense of value to the overall community.
The genesis of Inner City Cycling Connection, Inc. (IC3) started in 1983 when then president Ronald Reagan passed legislation that made Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. birthday a national holiday. At that time Don Harris, IC3 Founder and President, was reading a Life Magazine article and came across a picture of Dr. King riding a bicycle during the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott. After reading the article and seeing Dr. King cycling picture, Don, an avid cyclist, a health & fitness advocate, and a bike enthusiast, decided right then he wanted to form a philanthropic cycling organization that address the needs of our inner city youths.

Don is presently employed and is in management at the Los Angeles Water Reclamation Department. He has been there for the past nine years.
