Paralympic swimmer makes appeal for her adapted bicycle stolen in Dublin
Paralympiansays custom-made bicycle helped her win gold in Tokyo.Ellen Keane, a recently retired Paralympic swimmer, gold medallist, and current coach on Irelands Fittest Family on RT, has made a public appeal to help find her stolen bicycle. Her adapted bicycle was stolen while parked on the street in Ranelagh, Dublin City, and shes made an appeal on Instagram to help track it down.Keane said: So my bike got stolen; Im really, really sad about it. She got stolen from the bike rack outside Oslo in Ranelagh, and shes really special to me because shes custom-made, because I have one hand. She is matte black with purple petals, and all of the brakes, all of the gears, everything that you need to do to cycle a bike is on the right-hand side.As is the case with all stolen bicycles, the colours of distinctive features may be covered over, or parts changed before being put up for sale as stolen goods. In her video appeal, Keane added: I got her during Covid, when I couldnt swim, I cycled, and honestly, shes the reason I won my gold medal in Tokyo. So please, if you see her, if you see her on some secondhand bike shop, let me know. View this post on Instagram
