Being kind pays off.

REO Speedwagon lead singer Kevin Cronin was having a little bike trouble in Toronto on Sunday when a “super-friendly family” lent a hand.

Cronin is in the city as part of the band’s current tour with Styx and Loverboy, which was to hit Budweiser Stage on Tuesday night.

But while he was enjoying some free time to take in the sights, he ran into some issues trying to rent a Bike Share bicycle.

Enter the awesome family to the rescue.

“Hi friends, while I was attempting (unsuccessfully) to rent a bicycle from a kiosk here in Toronto this afternoon, a super-friendly family went out of their way, and offered me one of their rental bikes!” Cronin chronicled in a blog post titled “Biking in Toronto” on the band’s website.

“They refused to take no for an answer, nor would they accept any token of my appreciation … including free concert tickets for Tuesday night at the Budweiser Stage,” he continued.

Cronin added: “We all need reaffirmation of the intrinsic kindness in human nature, and I got my daily reminder today in Toronto.”

You have to keep on loving the people in this city.
