Anne Lusk, Research Scientist at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health, gave a presentation at our dealer Bike-On. This presentation was about how we can integrate bicycling with Senior Living. Harvard University is currently conducting a scientific study into the health benefits of our bicycles. The first insights were already startling. It appears that cycling on our special needs bicycles has a very positive effect on many diseases and disorders. Several institutions were present at this presentation, including Linda Mazie. She is a Vitalize 360 coach at the adult retirement community Fox Hill Village and participating in the research.Â
Following the presentation, Marnix and Martijn visited Wentworth Senior Living. A senior living community is designed to extend choice, independence and a sense of belonging to seniors. It is a flexible, personal community that adapts to each resident’s lifestyle, preferences and needs. Our dealer Bike-On brought the Van Raam wheelchairbikes VeloPlus and OPair and the side-by-side tandem Fun2Go to Wentworth Senior Living. Our bikes where tested by the caretakers of Wentworth Senior Living.
