Help underprivileged children get there first bike

by "Derek" <ddlem@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Dec 14, 2005 at 07:55 PM

Who doesn't remember their first bike? What's the magic? Why the intense 
universal desire to have your own bike? Is it the world beyond your own 
front yard discovered or perhaps it's because you get to go really fast,
all 
on your own, controlled by only you? A bike is a rite of passage for a
child 
and beyond the fun, the smile and the wind in your hair, a bike provides 
many things:
  a.. Teaches balance, strength and coordination.
  b.. Encourages independence with responsibility.
  c.. Provides a practical means of trans****tation.
  d.. Benefits health at a time when juvenile Type II Diabetes and obesity

are on the rise.
  e.. Boosts self esteem through a sense of skill mastery.
  f.. Increases socialization with others who share a love for the
outdoors 
and provides op****tunities for learning about nature.
  g.. Stirs the imagination.
  h.. Puts high risk children in contact with other children engaged in 
productive, healthy activities.
