Adaptive bikes roll into Wisconsin for rehab clinics
10 Jul
Summary
- Free adaptive cycling clinics are offered in Wisconsin.
- Clinics focus on rehabilitation and daily life integration.
- Three Wisconsin communities host upcoming events.
Spokes Fighting Strokes will host a series of free adaptive cycling clinics throughout central Wisconsin, providing opportunities for individuals with disabilities to engage with cycling and rehabilitation resources. These clinics are part of a nationwide tour led by founder Dan Zimmerman, in partnership with the Hostel Shoppe.
Three specific clinics are scheduled: July 14th in Marshfield at Wildwood Park, July 15th at the Tomah VA Medical Center for veterans and their caregivers, and July 16th at the Hostel Shoppe in Stevens Point. Zimmerman will also attend the Pedal Point Rally on July 17th and 18th.
Participants will receive a presentation from Zimmerman, enjoy guided rides, and get personalized recommendations for adaptive trikes. The organization encourages individuals affected by conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injuries, Parkinson's disease, and paralysis to join. Registration details are available online for the Marshfield and Stevens Point events, while the Tomah clinic requires registration via phone.
The initiative focuses on integrating adaptive cycling into rehabilitation and daily life, offering both equipment guidance and community support. Further information can be found on the Hostel Shoppe website.
