Tips for raising money

Fun2Go side-by-side tandem by Van Raam

The Fun2Go side-by-side tandem by Van Raam is a tricycle where the driver and co-driver sit next to each other. One person steers and both persons can pedal. Both persons have a good view of the road and surroundings and can easily communicate with each other. This makes the Fun2Go a popular bicycle for care institutions.
