I was first contacted by RIDEMAKERZ, makers of custom designed toy cars kids can build, about a promotion to support the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. A generous portion of the proceeds from the sale of the radio controlled Chevrolet Corvette C6RS – Special Edition would go directly to help fund the cause. We reviewed the car and gave away one vehicle to a lucky CuteMonster.com reader. Late in October I received an invitation to attend the Grand Opening press event of the RIDEMAKERZ store-within-a-store debut at FAO Schwarz in New York City. Adding to the excitement was the chance to bring my whole family to build and keep our own RIDEMAKERZ rides. Clearly it was an offer I couldn’t refuse. Little did I realize the best surprise awaited us.
