Customer experience Easy Rider tricycle bike - Imke Scholten
Due to balance problems, fears and stimuli, Imke often fell off her two-wheel bike. She has since swapped it for an electric Easy Rider sitting tricycle with back support and is doing much better!
Cycling with a tricycle with back support
"My name is Imke Scholten and five years ago I developed balance problems, and suffered a lot from anxiety and stimuli. I was still cycling on a regular bike then, but I fell often. Fortunately without serious injuries.
As a solution, I was then given a 'regular high' tricycle. The bike path is quite crooked in places which also made me go crooked with the tricycle. This left me with the fear.
I have since swapped the bike for an electric Easy Rider tricycle bike with back support, and guess what... It goes much better!"
Practising together
"Since this week, I started practising on the Easy Rider tricycle bike with the occupational therapist. I do this to gain more confidence and have the fear removed. Last Tuesday, I cycled my first block and today I cycled to work with my occupational therapist for the first time in all these years. I still found it quite scary, especially the way back as the bike path is a bit bumpy and crooked. I am confident the Easy Rider is going to be fine because I am already more relaxed on it than on my previous tricycle!"
