Our next giveaway: Three lucky supporters will win a complete set of Yehuda Moon comics. For the uninitiated, Yehuda Moon is the all-weather cyclist and crusading bike shop owner heading up a cast of characters who tell stories from the streets and bikeways of northeast Ohio. The comic is the work of Rick Smith and Brian Griggs, and it’s full of brilliant, universal insights into bike culture.

Thanks to Brian and Rick, we’ve got three Yehuda Moon compilations (each consisting of four volumes) to award at the end of the week:

Readers who give $50 or more to Streetsblog NYC or Streetfilms will also be entered to win a new Schwinn city bike courtesy of Ride Brooklyn. Only three days left to put yourself in the running.

Many thanks to all our readers who contributed to this pledge drive and supported our work. One more push and we’ll reach our goal.
