There was a major milestone Friday for a Glens Falls-based charity dedicated to helping recovering addicts.
An organization called Freedom Machines gave away its 1,000 bike. Founded in 2016 by two local men who are in recovery, the organization provides refurbished bicycles to those who are committed to staying drug and alcohol-free.
"We ask for 90 day sobriety. We go on the honor system. We like to say, ‘Hey, you're going to be here and do it, hold some accountability, and then we invite you down to come pick out a bike, or if we need to we can deliver," explained co-founder Mike Romanowski.
