Bidding for a Custom Ride with NJRC Co-Founders

Those attending the silent auction portion of the Friends of the Princeton Public Library Benefit on Friday, Oct. 28 at 7:45 p.m. will have the chance to bid on a customized ride with two or more New Jersey Road Club co-founders. The package includes two cycling jerseys from Kopp's Cycle (the nation's oldest bike shop), a route designed specifically to suit the interests and abilities of the successful bidders, customized cue sheets and holder and a post-ride lunch at the library's Open Book Café. All proceeds benefit Princeton Public Library. The benefit features at 6:30 p.m. talk by acclaimed author Russell Banks ("Afflication," "The Sweet Hereafter"), introduced by Nobel laureate and Oprah Winfrey fave Toni Morrison, at Nassau Presbyterian Church, 61 Nassau St., Princeton. The talk will be followed by dinner and the silent auction at the library, 65 Witherspoon St., Princeton. For more information, visit www.princetonlibrary.org/yoursupport/friends/events.html
