Together, we hope these elements paint a picture for you of the fun and freedom this exiting activity can bring and encourage you participate yourself.

Introducing the Running Bike

The Running Bike looks like a tricycle without pedals. You may think there is nothing special in that, however what it does is to give children and adults the opportunity to experience the thrill of moving through their outdoor environment. It also opens the door for participation in an exciting and emerging sport, Race Running.

Many of those who use the Running Bike have found a new dimension to life. Some who have been restricted to power wheelchairs have now found a way propelling themselves by their own efforts in a Running Bike.

It is our utmost hope that you can take some time to explore this website and that it will inspire you.
