Tandem Cycling - "Blind Stoker" Rides - the first step

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

While recently reviewing the Tandem Forum I was intrigued by a thread that spoke of rides organized to allow visually impaired and other disable individuals to ride as stoker. I posted and asked if there we any such rides in So Fla. Steve from the Trike Shop in Ft Laudedale pointed me to "Lighthouse of Broward."

Tonight I send off an email to the social worker at LHOB. I hope to get a relpy in the next day or two. I'm really excited about being able to share some weekend rides with individuals who might not otherwise be able to enjoy cycling. :)
