Notes

The cycling program involves bike rides pairing able-bodied and disabled cyclists together in a fun, social environment.

The rides help beginning and intermediate cyclists learn important skills and interact with peers to learn about health benefits and the rules of the road.

Athletes will gain basic knowledge of equipment and training techniques for racing and/or recreational riding of hand, foot or tandem pedaled cycles.

Family members or friends are encouraged to ride as well.

Bike rides will be split into beginners, intermediate and advanced groups.

Cyclists are encouraged to bring their own bikes, however hand-cycles and foot-pedaled cycles are available on-site.

The Sports for Individuals with Physical Disabilities program is designed for athletes ages 6 and older who have an orthopedic, neurological or sensory impairment. This could include, but not be limited to, Spina Bifida, Spinal Cord Injury, Traumatic Brain Injury, Osteogenesis Imperfecta, Amputee, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Cerebral Palsy and Blindness.
