Bike Collection In Easton Nets 65 Bikes

EASTON, Md. (AP) -- More than 65 bikes collected in Easton will soon be on the streets of Central America or Africa.

The donated bikes were collected Sunday as part of a D.C.-based program called Bikes for the World, which gives bikes to people such as health care workers and students in developing countries.

The bike collection program has been going on for more than a decade in Easton, but this week's collection brought in the most bikes in the program's history.
