A disability cycling club at the University of Bradford will today use Team GB training bikes for a 24-hour cycling challenge.
Adam Tasker (above), disability support worker at the University, set up the UK’s first disability cycling club and, with the help of four Team GB training bikes, he and others will aim to ride 1,500 miles while raising funds to ensure Cycling 4 All continues in 2013.
He said: “Cycling 4 All provides a much needed sports and social club for disabled students at the University, promoting inclusion, engagement and enhancing the student experience for those with disabilities. Every week we hold free sessions, with trips to Lister Park, where bikes for all abilities are provided free of charge.”
The Watt bikes used by Team GB have been supplied by British Cycling at the Manchester Velodrome.
