Adaptive Adventures - CAN

This past week we hosted our inaugural KVR cycle to with our new fleet of cycles🔥👏🏼🚲

This overnight cycle trip was a community effort and we cannot thank you all enough. YOU made this happen🎉

After the significant theft we experienced in February, we were not sure if we would be able to run our day programs, let alone our Adaptive Wilderness Expedition programs. The community came together, money was raised, and we accomplished more than we thought possible!!

We had an absolute blast on this 72km cycle! Thank you to every participant, volunteer, and community member who helped create amazing memories this past week 👏🏼

This trip was supported by

A few months ago, we were starting over.
Since then, you've helped us rebuild.

As new adaptive bikes are arriving, our team is training and learning how to use the new equipment and programs are returning. Most importantly, adaptive riders are getting back outside, back onto trails, back into nature, and back to experiencing the freedom of the Okanagan.

This past week, leading up to the arrival of our new Bowhead bikes, we were able to spend an afternoon with Cole, an representative, to learn more about the adaptive bikes, ride them, and adapt for all participants.

Now we're ready for the next milestone.
On June 10–11, we'll be running our inaugural Kettle Valley Railway ride with the new fleet.

This ride represents so much more than new equipment. It represents access, inclusion, independence, and everything our community has helped make possible.
Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, encouraged, and stood with us along the way. We can't wait to share this next chapter with you.

Follow along for more content from the KVR trip, day cycle programs, and more!
