Are you ready to experience the thrill of the wind in your hair and the open road beneath your wheels? Wichita Adaptive Sports is excited to introduce you to the world of adaptive cycling – a fantastic way to enjoy the outdoors, boost your fitness, and embrace a new sense of independence.
What is Adaptive Cycling?
Adaptive cycling involves using hand-powered bicycles, allowing individuals with various physical abilities to enjoy the benefits of cycling. These specialized bikes, known as hand cycles, are propelled by arm power rather than leg power, making them accessible to those with lower limb disabilities or mobility challenges.
Why Try Adaptive Cycling?
1. Freedom and Independence: Feel the exhilaration of self-propelled movement and explore your surroundings.
2. Physical Fitness: Enjoy a full-body workout that improves cardiovascular health and upper body strength.
3. Social Connections: Join a community of enthusiastic cyclists and make new friends.
4. Versatility: Whether you're into casual rides, fitness routines, or competitive racing, there's a place for you in adaptive cycling.
