Awesome day at work today!

After a year of talking about doing it we finally received our Duet bicycle for a therapy program they are letting me head up at work. My employer was pretty supportive of the awareness ride I did last fall and I guess I'm the bicycle guy for the moment. Spent part of my time today assembling it and next week will develop the guidelines for use.

Besides being pretty excited about the opportunity this will allow residents, I thought it was pretty funny seeing as we are talking about expensive bikes and couplers (which it has/is both).

Made in Holland, Nexus 8sp IGH. Drum brakes. The bar behind the wheelchair raises up and you brake and steer from there. The bottom tube pivots under the wheelchair and disconnects with a coupler so you can wheel people to and from the start point. Work just got a whole lot more fun.

Nothing to do with touring, just sharing the happiness of bicycling
