A good friend post edgier on Facebook, figured someone here might be able to help.
I dont know his neighbor in need, but I trust rocky [the poster] enough I've already sent him a gift on PayPal.
Maybe someone has a bike they aren't using?
Dallas area Facebook friends..., last Sunday, I was riding my bicycle down a little unmarked two lane, in Wylie. Up ahead I see what I think is a woman, pushing a bicycle. I get closer and I am wrong, it's a young man, pushing a 2 year old child, on a scooter. I get closer and see it is a neighbor of mine. It felt like 100+ degrees out and he still had 2.5 - 3 miles to go, until he got home. I could see that he was pushing the child on the scooter, so the baby girl didn't have to walk. My first thought is, "I need to get home as fast as I can, get my truck and go back and pick them up". However, as soon as I ride into the apartment parking lot, an older green Ford F350 pulls in and my neighbor gets out. After he got back over to the apartment, I get the low down. Turns out, his parents live over in that area and that is where his daughter stays most of the time. The mother had left the daughter and him and ran away to the east coast. She has not been seen in a long time. He has no car or other form of transportation at this time.
I want to help him. I am asking my FB family to help me, help him. I have a child's bicycle safety seat, that attaches to an adult bike. I am asking any of you, who might have an old, or extra, adult bicycle that you can donate to the cause. Maybe a Girl's childs bicycle helmet, Adult helmet, etc. Anything related may be what makes a difference. I can repair the bicycle if needed and can pick it up. It's insane how much difference, something like a bicycle could make to someone that has nothing else.
