Diederik was struck by a cerebral infarction in 2009, but has taken his physique to a much higher level because of his perseverance and daily exercise on his Easy Rider. Diederik keeps a blog (Dutch) about all matters concerning a tricycle for adults and his experience with the Easy Rider.

Andreas Fuck from Germany bikes 2200 km through Germany and the Netherlands to raise attention for the positive effects bicycling on a tricycle can have on adults. Andreas and his physiotherapist Ulrich Martens saw Andreas’ endurance improve visibly since he’s been riding the Easy Rider.

Moreover, he wants organizations and the German government to recognize that they should stimulate the possibility of purchasing such a bicycle with financial support. Another goal of his is to discuss regulations concerning places to bike, bringing special needs bicycles on public transport and compensations for this, among other things, at the Reichstag in Berlin.
