It was a successful ending to the "2011 Bikes or Bust."
WZYP's Morning Show host, Mojo, came down from the scissor lift Monday night after spending 104 hours in the air at Ashley Furniture.
They worked with the Marine Corp, "Toys for Tots" program to collect new bikes for children in the valley.
It was a huge success. They raised more than 2,000 bikes. Mojo said this is a very important event.
"Everybody remembers their first bike no matter how old you get and so this instead of just giving a Christmas, you're creating a memory that will last a lifetime for that child," he said.
Mojo said he's grateful the community came out to support this event.
