The Bikes Are Back In Town

The Amtrykes
have rolled back into town and they've helped put over thirty kids back on the
road to freedom.
That road
to freedom doesn't come easy, but dozens of volunteers make sure each Amtryke
is a custom-fit for its recipient.
After
suffering from a spinal cord injury, bike designer, Jon Lee understands just
how important that custom fit is.
He helps
design these bikes every day and just recently received his own Amtryke that
allows him to experience freedom and mobility again.
It's a
project the entire community can help out with by simply donating an old set of
crutches or volunteering a little time.
Lee and
other volunteers can testify the rewards will make a lasting impact on your
life.
