Lessons + Sessions
Bomber
The Reactive Adaptations Bomber is an adaptive, off-road handcycle that places the rider in a prone position providing a more aggressive riding experience. Riders use their chest to engage a steering mechanism, so riders with lower-level spinal cord injuries will have more success riding this adaptive bike. Riders with lower level spinal cord injuries will have more success riding this bike. Riders must have some core strength/function allowing them to push up in a prone position. A high level of fitness is also recommended, as bombers can be more strenuous to pedal far distances but have better handling than other handcycles. After a lesson and check-off, you can rent a Bomber from the NAC.
Lasher
Riders who have spent a lot of time pedaling on the road will find Lasher Sports' Lasher to be a good transition to mountain biking. The lasher resembles an adaptive road cycle in its geometry, but has mountain bike tires and suspension. It provides a pleasant cross-country experience for hand-cyclist for riders with incomplete injuries or who have some use of their legs and feet. After a lesson and check-off, members can rent a Lasher from the NAC.
