Right guys,

I don't know Scot (although we've met once) and i don't know this girlie. However, i feel that as Scott is going out of his way to help, we should too.

ANyone else fancy putting their hands in their pocket for £5 to anything up from that to help this girl get a bike and enjoy the freedom?

P.s Scottland, if you read this and it's inappropriate then sorry fella... i will remove... But fuck it mate... why not

EDIT
If people do want to donate anything to help Marie out, please feel free to bung it over to my PP account and then I will get it to Scottland and Marie.

My paypal is fallen.angel.2106@gmail.com - please make sure you mark your donation as "For Marie" or "To help Marie" so I can keep track of those coming in for her.

I'd happily stick in a fiver.

I love riding, tis not often you can help someone get into it for so little especially in the circumstances in Scotlands post.

Wow...tbh mate this is pretty amazing. She really does want to get on the road and as she can't be very active for long periods at a time, it's going to take her a long time to get up to speed enough to pass her test.

It'd just be cool if we could find her a decent bike.....thanks!

set up some form of paypal or summat and I'll throw in a tenner.

scottland · 24-06-09, 12:06

I don't/can't have a paypal account, but if you PM me, I can give you my bank details!

This is very cool indeed guys, I wasn't honestly expecting anything like this! I'm genuinely moved! Thank you!

I was just going to suggest the same. It's payday for most of us next week, i rekon a few of us can afford the odd few £

I'm sure if people need to use Paypal, Fallen Angel will help with that and she's a trustworthy lass.

Of course i'd use mine (as i've done for raising money for Air Ambulance) but who on here would send me money

My Paypal account it at Scottland's beck and call should he want it

Right.... How about this.

Scott.... you free up a weekend to give me a hand, and we get Rita Sue back on the road. I'll sort the MOT out. Bike's hers as long as she needs it to a) save up for her own, b) pass her test, whatever.

Now, it may not be the ideal bike for her condition, so this may be a dumb idea, I don't know.

What say you?

Sounds an awesome idea....I'll get in touch and ask her if that's doable. When her legs aren't causing her grief, she has mostly full mobility. How cramped is it, she's about 5'8"?

It's not cramped, and I'm 5' 8".

Sounds like a plan then! It'd be a lot better if she didn't have to spend her savings! If people are still willing to put in money, then that could go towards getting it down to her!

Thanks people!

I'm broke and have no bike to offer, but all this lovey-dovey stuff is giving me a moral-semi, so I'll offer her a course in the finer-points of duct-taping when she needs one.
