Steve Pringle Memorial (Build A Bicycle)

Steve was an Army veteran, a proud father of 6, and a grandfather of 5 kids. He loved life and everything it had to offer. He thrived on helping others which led him to create a business using bikes as therapy, Build a Bicycle Therapy and Rolling Wheels. He ran programs for rehabilitated prisoners, people with disabilities, and more. He donated many bicycles to those who needed them including children in foster care, victims escaping domestic violence, Churches, etc. He had just arrived in Florida to give bikes to hurricane victims when a terrible car accident took his life. As his children, we want his name and charity work to live on. We are hoping to continue his charity work for as long as possible and raise funds yearly in his honor. All donations will be used for his services and to purchase bikes for those in need.

The following link is an article from Detroit detailing some of the work he had been doing recently.
