Tyrone,

Congrats on the Jefferson Award!How do people get in touch with you via email/facebook?! I'm starting a group for people helping people with art, and I'd love for supporting Scraperbikes to be our first project. Let's talk! Your movement and outlook on life are simply amazing.

Congrats on the award. You are doing great things for the youth of the bay area, and hopefully beyond.
Your work inspired me to do an art project with my 2nd graders.
Check it out! IF you have any words for the students pass them on.

Thanks for the inspiration!
