Shim's Ride

Hey all,

I hope this is appropriate to post here. As I'm sure many of you are aware, our fellow Tripleshot rider/Oak Bay Bikes employee Mathew Szymanowski (Shim) was struck by a motor vehicle while out on his bike last August and suffered a spinal cord injury, resulting in paralysis from the neck down.

Three of us (Sam Horn, Cole Glover and myself) will be riding from Port Hardy on July 25th as a fundraising effort to support Shim. We are selling jerseys and buffs (graciously provided by Jakroo). If anyone is interested in supporting Shim by either purchasing a jersey/buff, making a direct donation, or sharing his story, you can visit shimsride.ca for more information.

Please let us know if there are any questions!

Nick
