Hi folks

This is a post to request ideas.

There is a Brazilian Paralympic cyclist João Schwindt and he does not have sponsorship or funds for a brand new bike.

I was wondering if there are maybe clubs in the Uk that his team could get in touch with about say borrowing equipment if he does not manage to raise the funds in time.

I know you may be thinking that Brazil is a rich country, but what with corruption and an extremely anti-bike mentality from many people, it is tough for people in the sport to make progress.

Any ideas, such as raising his profile on other sites etc?

Here is more information but in Portuguese

Cheers

Simon
