Spotted : Ambassador Bike in Windsor, youve been spotted! Today, I brought a Brazilian student who recently arrived in Windsor to your bike shop. As an international student, it is difficult to adjust to the weather, food, and culture, but the hardest adjustment is in the freedom to get around.This young man was extremely happy to be given a discarded bike which was in really rough shape. He asked me where he would go to get it serviced because the seat was unusable and it needed a new chain. I brought him to Ambassador Bikes (just off off Huron Line). The staff took one look at the rusted out, well used bike and said it wasnt worth fixing. They brought out a wonderful, used bike and GAVE it to him. I asked them how much was and they said that he could have it (free). I couldnt believe it!! What an amazing gift! This is a wonderful memory that he will carry with him when he returns to Brazil. This simple act of kindness has made all Windsorites and Canadians look good in the eyes of this foreign student. Thank you to Mark Long and Nate Bere! Your generosity has made me so proud to be a Canadian! #PayitForward #SpottedinWindsor
