if i were you guys i would get a hold of cam mccaul and see if he could pull some strings and sweet talk trek into getting him a new session 88, im sure cam would do that for someone who made him all his fame
weve been talkin to him and workin with him but mr.e really keeps talkin about how nice the 951 one is so were really tryinf for one of those but if we cant get one of those we probably will try for the sessions 88
he seems like a really good person and im not trying to be a dick but maybe fixing kids bike for money instead of free could help keep the shop open...?i would donate but im in 400 dollars debt lol sorry man good luck hope he gets what he wants.
he doesnt own the shop to be rich
he owns the shop to help kids and give to the community doing something he loves
think of earning money as a bonus
hes not in it for the money hes in it for the joy of helping kids on thier way becoming something in the biking world.
he dosent do much for free but he does most things for cheap and he only does it to the kids who he knows are trying to get better or dont have much money for the up-keep on their bikes
weve been talkin to him and workin with him but mr.e really keeps talkin about how nice the 951 one is so were really tryinf for one of those but if we cant get one of those we probably will try for the sessions 88
cost is still 2000 dollars and if your giving mr.e 200 dollars we're only saving you about 400
plus i dont think we can do it because then it would blow the whole plan of keepin it a surprise once we have the money
