Cycling Without Age
Cycling Without Age is an international program in 50+ countries for mobility challenged people to help them enjoy the fresh air and scenery of their surroundings from the front of a trishaw.
Thanks to the support of donors, volunteers and other community members, Cycling Without Age Hamilton is offering free rides on the Waterfront Trail to seniors and mobility challenged clients.
“The Right To Wind In Their Hair”
Help us provide access to cycling, nature, and overall movement with the purchase of a wheelchair-specific Trishaw.
The Cycling Without Age chapter in Hamilton and Burlington is seeking to expand their fleet, coordinate transportation, storage solutions, and conduct regular maintenance for the trishaws so that we can continue serving vulnerable seniors. This is HUGE for seniors who have limited mobility by way of a wheelchair, offering them a means of participating in the Cycling Without Age program.

“I was providing a ride to a married couple where the husband had dementia and was non-verbal. After the ride I asked if they enjoyed themselves to which the man replied, “thank you”. The wife began to cry, I cried, we all cried tears of joy.”
