As you can see that I have reached the fundraising goal. But the only old road bike I have received from a friend is not repairable and is too danger to ride as per Braun's cycle. Now I don't have a bike to ride.
I don't want to disappoint all the donors. Thus I would like to ride on behalf of their friends whom have been suffered with cancer.
I would like to ask if you know anyone who will rent or loan or donate a bike for the ride. If this is company donation, I will offer to promote their company by wearing a banner with their company name on it during the ride.
Sorry, I have very tight on money. Thus I have two children are in University. I don't have a thousand dollar to purchase a new bike. But I can afford a couple hundreds to purchase discounted road bike.
I need you help! Please help me to source a bike to ride safely.
What's wrong with your current bike? I saw the other post where you noted it would cost $400 to repair. What's broken? Maybe we can help you source some used parts to fix the problems.
Check out kijiji.ca, craigslist.ca and pinkbike.com for used bikes. There are often low cost bikes for sale that will be more than adequate for this event.
I will check those web site for low price road bike.
The old bike I have used the tubular tube. The bike wants to replace them on both wheel with regular wheel, tire and tube, plus labour. It will cost $400 to repair.
I am looking for old road bike using regular wheel, tire and tube in couple hundreds.
If you know anyone want to sell his old bike in decent condition. Please let me know.
This is old road bike is a gift from a friend. His son uses to ride. It has a lot of upgrade. Therefore I want to show them this old bike can finish the 200km ride.
Edwin call Peter at Wheels on Bloor right now a set of 500 shimano wheels is 149. add tubes for 20 and tires for 60....thats about 230...well in budget range.

Perfect solution for Edwin. Thank you mweerasinghe.
Peter and Wheels of Bloor are great. One of my bikes is from them plus lots of gear. The store is a bit intimidating at first because they have mostly high high end road bikes but they always give top service and respect your budget.
