    Story

    I was called by a friend of mine yesterday morning for him to tell me that he had his wheelchair adapted trike stolen and burnt out 1/2 a mile from where he lives.
    For any of you that know paul abbott from ls12 you will be aware that he has ms and uses a wheelchair to mobilise everyday.
    Buying this 80cc trike 12 weeks ago as given paul his independence back and in his own words made him "self sufficient " and reliant on no one.
    To be able to buy this trike paul first had to apply for his driving licence back and undergo numerous assessments to prove that even with his ms he was still fit to drive a vehicle, which paul passed no problems.
    Since purchasing this trike paul has travelled using "his machine" and attended a few motorbike rallies and had more booked throughout the year which he wanted to attend with his friends.
    Myself and many more of his friends are discusted to see him have his independence snatched away for the sake of the thieves entertainment. I hope to raise some money for him:
    A, to get paul a new trike
    B, to cover any increase in insurance hike

    Let's get this man back out on the road!!

      Quick update. We saw this up for sale in leeds at weekend it's a nippi 125cc nearly 4 year old with only 3500 miles on clock. I arranged a viewing and paul was very keen to purchase it as they are rare in this engine size and condition. The lady we purchased it from had recently lost her husband who rode this but was keen for it to go to someone who would use it. Paul made an offer and it was accepted. Me and paul have spent the weekend upgrading his security for the new arrival and this was paul yesterday evening after riding it home. Xx
