Summary

Customized program for Craig Hospital Inpatient and Department of Recreation Therapy.

Description

Description of Program: Participants meet with the Craig Hospital CTRS and Adaptive Adventures staff individually to assess safety, cycling abilities, endurance level, and proper fitting of equipment (upright, tandem, trike or handcycle).  Small group treatment sessions will include discussions on benefits of exercise, motivational techniques (i.e. charting progress in time, distance and/or terrain), training and practice on cycling skills, traffic etiquette, safety and dealing with emergencies or mechanical failures. Cycling groups will consist of learning about and engaging in opportunities in the home communities. The goal of the cycling program is for each participant to be at a functionally independent level for participation in community cycling.  

Buddy Riders are always needed to support the wellness of the rider, as well ensure that the culture of cycling is exciting for the community of activity and wellness that it creates.
