SUMMER SPORTS

Adaptive Road Cycling

This summer, experience the best in adaptive cycling suited to novice through advanced riders.

Our summer schedule includes beginner/introductory events which are perfect for first timers or if you’re looking to buy an adaptive cycle and need to sample what’s on the market. Our Northern California/Nevada Ride gives you the chance to ride bike trails in Sacramento, Tahoe and Reno while meeting other adaptive cyclists.

We can easily accommodate paraplegics, hemiplegics, and quadriplegics alike. People with visual impairments can safely ride our tandem cycles and those with impaired balance and coordination, but ambulatory lower extremities can enjoy our recumbent trikes.
