This led to a bit of a puzzle as I didn’t have.kids or grand-kids to give it to.
1 wanted the bike to go to someone who didn’t have the opportunity to own such a wonderful thing.I contacted the shelter(where I occasionally volunteered in the kitchen)and while there was a big need for a sweet.Bike there was also the potential for it creating conflict.
