My love affair with my Mountain Trike off road wheelchair

My Mountain Trike All Terrain Wheelchair: When Tim Morgan & Roger Crawford, of Mountain Trike, asked me if I would be willing to write a testimonial extolling the virtue of my Mountain Trike All Terrain Wheelchair, I jumped at the opportunity. Having waxed lyrical about my Mountain Trike to all and sundry, I thought this would be a great opportunity to reach a wider audience! So where to begin? I suppose a little information about myself, my positive experience when dealing with Tim & Roger and most importantly; my love affair with my incredible Mountain Trike wheelchair will bring the whole thing into context.   About me: I’m a 65 year old man and I suffer from an inflammatory arthritic condition together with a degenerate spinal disease.

Borrow an MT Push all -terrain wheelchair through Bowen Island Public Library

Bowen Island in Vancouver has over 12k of trails and glorious space to explore. However, it wasn’t accessible to all, but thanks to a great community spirit a grant funding was approved for an MT Push – all terrain wheelchair to be purchased for people to use free of charge.   The all-terrain wheelchair can be borrowed from the Bowen Island Public Library, thanks to a grant from the Bowen Island Community Foundation, making Crippen Regional Park more accessible. Watch the video for further detail about this great community story… Visit Mountain Trike website for more information about their all-terrain wheelchair products.

We’ve put together a round up of some of the accessible beaches in Wales – click the link below (downloadable PDF) and read on. Accessible Beaches…
