Cycling Without Age

It was inspiring to meet the guys running the Oxford chapter of this impressive initiative today - they even gave us a ride in their amazing trishaw!

“We dream of creating a world together, in which the access to active citizenship creates happiness among our fellow elderly citizens by providing them with an opportunity to remain an active part of society and the local community.

We do that by giving them the right to wind in their hair, the right to experience the city and nature close up from the bicycle and by giving them an opportunity to tell their story in the environment where they have lived their lives.

That way we build bridges between generations and we reinforce trust, respect and the social glue in our society.”

(Ole Kassow, founder of Cycling Without Age).
