Lisa has only been in San Diego for a few months. She connected with Ian at SDCBC late in March with a simple message: "Iām an adult beginner who has never learned to ride a bicycle and am desperate to learn." Ian pointed Lisa to the SDCBC "City Cycling" classes to get her started and connected Lisa to ReBike. After a few emails back and forth we were able to identify a bike that would fit her needs: mainly cycling around Hillcrest for transportation as Lisa can not afford a car.
Today we delivered a bike to Lisa, a nice blue, step-thru city bike that is ride ready. Lisa's eyes literally teared up when she saw it. She wanted to pay something for the bike and offered a small wad of bills that she had saved up to pay for the bike - when she heard we did not need any payment, her smile was worth a million bucks. Another day, another bike - it doesn't get better than this. š
THANKS TO ALL OF OUR SUPPORTERS, DONORS, VOLUNTEERS AND PARTNERS.
