Gkam84 needs a trike to ride and help him deal with early Parkinson’s – he’s 28 FFS

    Completely by chance I clicked on Gkan84’s sig, wondering what it was about.

    Turns out he (Keith) is suffering early onset Parkinson’s and is after money to buy himself a recumbent trike so he can keep riding. He’s 28.

    By the look of it he’s only had his fundme page open for a short while. I suspect he’s being polite and not putting a direct link to it himself on the forum just yet?!

    He’s chosen a nice trike to aim for:

    So, first of all wouldn’t hurt to give the Keith a little money would it? I’ve started the pot with a measly tenner, but I figure there’s quite a few of us here for whom a tenner represents just about nothing, so… it’s paypal so use a bit of your ‘bike fund’ like I did!

    Secondly maybe we can find a way of getting something similar second hand or for a discount somewhere?

    I do like the sound of the drawing as well actually, but can just wait until all is revealed anyway.

    I suppose if I can do it, it gets more publicity for my page.

    I find talking on here/the internet alot easier than trying to talk face to face. I can barely hold a conversation with a shop keeper in “real” life when feeling like this, Some days are better than others. But tomorrow, I shall sit in front of my contour and get something sorted 😉
