Adaptive Bike Hire
Cycling should be accessible to all. One of our aims is to provide access to a range of adaptive bikes that meet the needs of as many people as possible. The nearest location with access to such bikes is Dalby Forest Cycle Hub, and we feel that something more local should be offered so that people don’t have to drive a 40 mile round trip.
All funds obtained from hire of these bikes will be used to provide for maintenance of the bikes, as well as for purchase of further bikes to fulfil the needs of the local community.
Given that the sole cycle infrastructure in Whitby and District is the CinderTrack, we anticipate that the vast majority of usage of these bikes will be on that surface. You can find the current official CinderTrack leaflet HERE.
The Bikes
We expect to have the following bike(s) available soon.
VanRaam Fun2Go e-bike
The Fun2Go is a 2-rider, 3-wheeler, where the riders sit side-by-side. This bike is easy to get on (rotatable passenger seat), comfortable for the less able-bodied (lap seat belt, arm rests, foot rest if required,etc) and is incredibly manoeuverable. It is a social bike allowing riders to chat during a ride. The pedals work independently allowing one rider to pedal less or not at all. You would cover maybe 10-20km in a session with this bike, suitable for rides up and down the Cinder Track. Width : 1.13m. Photo opposite © VanRaam.
This bike will be arriving in 2025. More details will be revealed nearer the time.
This bike is being purchased using grants from the following sponsors.
