Why
We ride for the adventure. We ride for the connection with nature and each other. We ride for fresh air and sunshine. We ride for the fun of it. Friends and family are welcome to participate by bringing their own bike to ride.
Where
Our regular rides begin and end at DaySpring Senior Living in Plano. Their parking lot has direct ramp access to the Bluebonnet Trail. Sometimes we pedal to the Veterans Memorial. Other times we stop to watch the ducks along the Chisholm Trail or pet the pups that are leaving the dog park.
When
We pedal the residents that live at our host location on a set schedule. Others in the community can schedule an appointment for a joyride. You'll find us at local events and bicycle rallies too. We operate year-round and the ride times vary based upon a myriad of factors.
Our Founder's Motivation
Shannon's Grandma Margie just wanted to escape her current reality for awhile. Get a little fresh air and sunshine. Feel independent again. At least that's what Shannon assumed her grandma wanted when one day out of the blue she asked to leave memory care so she could ride her bicycle. Unfortunately, Shannon wasn't able to give her beloved Grandma Margie a bike ride, so she is dedicated to giving wheelchair bike rides in her memory.
