Ciara is asking for a mountain bike as it would truly assist her in getting to and from school and work. Her family of seven has one vehicle and she is often left without reliable transportation. Ciara is an intelligent senior in high school and as she grows in her independence, a bike would give her greater means to increase her freedom and independence. She has maintained employment which has done wonders in building her character, charisma, and motivation but it is getting difficult to continue relying on transportation from others.
