Good Bike Karma- Paying it Forward...

[crazycanuck]

Denise, you're one amazing iron chickadee

Thanks for helping out however you can (((RM)))

BTW..how's justin?

[smurfalicious]

Shipping be damned when I get ready to buy a BMX bike, I'm buying it from your shop! I could definitely feel good about that purchase! BMX, like I need another way to get injured, oh well, gotta scratch itches now and again.

Denise, that story just made my day! Wow you and your manager and everyone in on it are super awesome folks! It's people like you who make the world a better place!

We need more people like you in this world!

I love you, woman. You give humans a good name.

RM - I'm still wiping the tears away, even after reading all those warm responses! You do so many good things that I can never read your posts aloud to DH because I can't talk through the tears! You're awesome! And it's so wonderful all that you do for so many people!!! If it were just a little closer, you'd be my LBS without question. No idea if we'll be in Arizona ever, but if I get to the state one day, I'll do all I can to see you in person!!!

The butterflies are doing such a happy in air jig, they are a wonder to behold, just like you. And when they get that way, they spontaneously multiply and head out to everyone who needs them!

Hugs and butterflies to you and everyone involved!

RM, reading your posts today and then the other thread on Justin just helps cement in my mind that Yes, there really are still some GOOD people in this world!!! You are one special lady!!

[Red Rock]

RM- you made may day reading this. I always look forward to the next edition of "what is happening at the bike shop". I knew there was something special about you doing opening the business. May it continue to bring you joy and happiness with all of your customers!

If I ever make it Goodyear AZ, I would love to meet you. You are a hero in my/our books.

Thankyou for all you do in your community as for us on the Board here.

I love you, woman. You give humans a good name.

I love this quote!
And you do!
Humans need all the help they can get these days!

[crazycanuck]

Hey RM,

Can I order stuff from your bike shop? It's hard to find good customer service!

[Running Mommy]

Ok ya'll, now you dun made ME cry!!!
Such kind words. I'm blessed to have all of you in my life as well.
As I said, we were just doing the right thing. I wouldn't think twice about it, and I certainly don't expect all the accolades I've gotten here. But thank you.

Also, Remember that it was Nick (our manager) who stepped up big time. He's funny, now he says "ahh man, now people are going to think I'm NICE!" with mock horror
Also, when Intense found out what we were doing they threw in some stuff too. So it was a group effort. I don't want to forget that.

I was out at the track this evening, and he is STILL smiling!
Apparently he wasn't going to be able to come practice tonight because his mom said they didn't have the money. So Justins younger brother paid him the 5.00 that it costs to wash his bike for him. So see, It's not just me. A 9 yr old is making sure that he can ride. A nine yr old used his allowance to pay him for something that he could have easily done himself.
Well, I'm off to bed with all your kind posts tucked under my pillow.

Ciao bellas!
Denise

Oh- and Justin is doing MUCH better. He's still losing weight, which is troubling. But he says nothing tastes good, so he won't eat. He's lost over 30 lbs, and really needs to be gaining.
His brain injury seems to be getting better, but his motor skills are still a bit off. His speech isn't as deliberate tho, so I take that as a good sign. He has a girlfriend now too. They are so dang CUTE together! He's at the track everynight it's open though. And he always has a hug and kind words for me. He's such a good kid!
Thanks for asking all.

[Running Mommy]

I've been thinking that I need to send you a box of goodies. I FINALLY got one out to Clock in sunny (heh heh) england a couple of weeks ago.
Are you in need??
PM me!

[crazycanuck]

I feel the need for (biking) speed..

Sorry, Top Gun moment..

[Running Mommy]

HA!
That would be a spendy little "package"!!
Could you imagine the shipping costs??!! YIPES!
I think it might be cheaper to fly it there.

I do have an xs Juliana I'm trying to unload tho... 07 model, hardly ridden.
