I'm going to say this in advance of his getting his bike so that I can be the first one:

Maurice, honorary Slowtwitcher that you are, your seat is too high.

There's no way that Maurice could ever have guessed,
that what seemed his worst day was actually his best.

Nice work all. I like the idea of giving him some breathing room. A better bike, more pocket money. PP donation coming.

Oops. Looks like I didn't hit the final "Send Money" button yesterday. I think I did it right this morning.

Well done again, everyone!

While it seems monetary donations are meeting and exceeding, I want to contribute some useful touring equipment. I have an essentially new helmet and shoes in several sizes, but I'd like to know his dimensions (helmet, shoe, jersey, etc).

I'll get it in the mail tomorrow first thing.

I have a very high end set of Jandd panniers and racks both front and back (including rain covers) that have been used for a two week tour of Europe. Valued at $1,000.00 Canadian. I'll also throw in a rear rack pack that is a bit older but still in good condition. If he needs these, I can ship them direct since I live in Canada. Let me know. I will be participating in the Tour For Kids over the next four days, so if you need them shipped before next week, e-mail info(at)cdisports(dot)com and I will have Richard send them out. Otherwise please e-mail me at

zdreja(at)cogeco(dot)ca. I'm not a regular on this board, so sorry for the slow response.

Bless all you kind hearted slowtwitchers. What a fantastic response.

I think it's unbelievable the generosity that everyone has brought to the table. I grew up near Saskatoon and it is truly a beautiful place, but I find it disheartening that this happened to this kind gentleman. If you need someone to deliver the package and take pictures let me know......I can gather up some friends that would be more than willing to help out any way they can.

It would be great if someone got pictures of him as he sets back out. I wish I could be there.

Not a lot but just dropped $20 into the effort. Makes me happy being a Canadian, and just a human being for that matter, that there are so many generous and supportive people out there. Imagien fi this kind fo effort were to occur for everything that needed aid. This world would be a much better place. Good job everyone and if KC is on TV, I'll make sure to watch. If any other news come through the Canaidan Press, I'll be sure to pass it along.
