U.S. Blind Tandem Cycling Connection’s Website is Live
Woodland Hills, CA January 27, 2010 - The website for the U.S. Blind Tandem Cycling Connection is live, providing an online resource for blind and sighted cyclists to team up for a bike ride. By creating a profile, riders can search for either a sighted pilot or a blind/visually impaired stoker in their local area. Profile questions help riders match up based on riding experience and cycling goals. Tandem experience is not necessary. The website provides a tutorial to teach the basics to new pilots and stokers.
The U.S. Blind Tandem Cycling Connection endeavors to increase the participation of individuals who are blind/visually impaired in the exhilarating sport of tandem cycling. Their vision is that everyone with a visual impairment has the opportunity to experience tandem cycling, with its’ feeling of freedom and sensation of speed.
“Riding a tandem has given me the opportunity to achieve physical, spiritual, social, and emotional wellness. Cycling makes me feel alive. I am so grateful to any pilot who shares the ride with me.” Ron Burzese, blind stoker, Austin, Texas
The U.S. Blind Tandem Cycling Connection is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. To create a profile and share the ride, visit http://bicyclingblind.org/.
