Colorado Springs is a military-heavy town, so stories like this are more obvious than in other places around the nation. This video seems to work only in Internet Explorer 🙁 I tried Chrome and Firefox and do not have Safari.
The story involves the Thanks Troops Foundation, a Springs-based organization that helps disabled veterans get back into life after the military. The Foundation provides Mountain Bikes (in this case) for vets to keep them away from the bottle and those ‘dark places’ when they return.
Hey Viking, it works for me on Chrome / Windows. I’ve updated the post to embed the video; I might remove it though — the autostart is annoying.
crappy video but the idea there is really cool
