Original Toronto Star caption: Mayor pedals for kids who can't. In the bike-a-thon staged yesterday by the Variety Club of Ontario to benefit Variety Village school for the handicapped and Electronic Limb Centre for limbless children, Toronto Mayor David Crombie shares a bicycle built for two with his daughter Carrie. Almost 30,000 cyclists pedalled through Metro, raising $200,000, almost double last year's amount, under the slogan Ride for kids who cant't.
