Jess Lee
We had a fantastic cycling holiday with a 98-year-old in Norfolk. Beautiful quiet lanes and courteous drivers. We also used the OPair to take a friend to a medical appointment.
Richard Hernández
Cycling eight hundred kilometers with a wheelchair bike without pedal support. That sounds like a challenge. A challenge that Richard Hernández accepted together with his disabled son Andrés. Together they cycled the pilgrimage route "Camino de Santiago". For centuries this route has been used by believers to pray at Santiago de Compostela, in the North-West of Spain, at the grave of Apostle James. Usually this route is taken by foot, but Richard and his son Andrés decided to make the trip from Roncesvalles with the OPair wheelchair bike and they called the route symbolic: "El Camino de Andrés". Read their story below.

Bart Dinkelman
Unfortunately, we had to cancel our holiday because my wife broke her ankle. Fortunately, we were able to rent an OPair wheelchair bike and this alternative was a way to soften it.
