Red Deer man repairs bikes for those who need them
A central Alberta man giving back to the community says doing so is something he’s always dreamed about.
Shawn Harnum, a member of the Blackfalds Optimist Club, runs the Optimist Club of Red Deer’s Bike Club.
What that entails is nothing short of an immense amount of dedication in repairing bikes so they can go out to people young and old who need them.
“They asked me to run this program over two years ago and they had it in two sea cans at the Sunnybrook Farm. I jumped on it like ‘Oh heck yeah, I’m going to do it right, it’s going to be awesome,’” he says.
