Modified Trikes for Wheelchair Riders!

Yes, SCI folks, you can still ride a bike. See the video below:

The first time I saw this Trike I was striken by it's beauty. Think of the possibilities. particularly those people hurt by a motobike accident, who still have the bug…

Here is the link to the vehicle maker:

[Conquest Wheelchair][1]

And to a Dealer:

[Mobility Works][2]

The vehicle has a BMW R 1170 bike engine pushing it 0 to 60 miles an hour in 7.6 seconds. This is a serious  bike with a serious tag price ~ 50,000 dollars. Keep in mind, though this is what would pay for a fully equipped wheelchair accessible van anyway…

_There is no doubt that one must have reflexes, reaction times, and balance  appropriate for this kind of machine. Talk to your health care provider about your current abilities to drive this._ I am convinced that many SCI people could…

This might be an antidote for some people's  brooding,  or who knows depression…Did we say health promoting?

Note: We received no incentive from the commercial entities mentioned
