A Saanich family hopes an online platform can get their daughter rolling with the family again.

Leila Bui loved to bike as a child. Then tragedy struck.

In 2017, when Leila was 11, a driver hit her in a marked crosswalk, causing a traumatic brain injury that left her unable to speak, with little to no communication and wheelchair-bound.

She requires 24-hour care, but the family hopes to see her out cycling again after registering for The Great Bike Giveaway.
