Wheelchair Sports SA’s – Handcycling ‘Have a Go’

Wheelchair Sports SA (WCSSA) will be holding a ‘have-a-go’ afternoon for all those interested in trying the sport of ‘handcycling’.

As the name suggests, a handcycle is a cycle that is peddled with the use of the hands, not the feet. These bikes are therefore great for anyone with spinal injuries, back pain, leg or ankle injuries, amputations or anyone who just wants to try out something new and fun.

The  ‘have-a-go’ afternoon will be held in the safe and flat environment of Victoria Park.

When: Sunday 4th July (this weekend)

Where: Victoria Park Clipsal Track (enter of Wakefield St)

Time: 2pm

Cost: FREE

WCSSA have 10 handcycles for people to have-a-go with, including junior cycles, kneelers and recumbence styles.


For more information on this event, please contact Louise on (08) 8234 1533.

If you are interested in attending this event, please contact the WCSSA office before 9am Friday.
