Reduced mobility in the elderly

Fortunately, the saying 'old age comes with ailments' does not apply to all elderly people. Nevertheless, as they grow older, people sometimes experience mobility limitations. Most mobility limitations are the result of complaints and illnesses of the locomotor apparatus. In addition, fall accidents also play an important role in reduced mobility.

Cycling together on a Van Raam bicycle

If cycling independently is not possible, you can opt for a Van Raam bicycle to cycle together. This keeps you as an elderly person in exercise and mobile for longer. We have several different bikes that can be used for cycling together; tandems, side-by-side tandems, wheelchair bikes and a transport bike.
