A volunteer ride service for seniors.

“The air was a little breezy, it felt so nice!” -Shirley (below in orange)

What drives us We take seniors out for a bicycle ride - through the city, to the

water and the countryside. We make them smile and bring

back memories. We let them be part of society again and

thereby renew their appetite for life itself. We give them the

right to wind in their hair!

The Pilot Volunteers Cycling Without Age is

probably less about

volunteering in the traditional

sense of the word - and more

about active citizenship

driven by a desire to get

involved and to make a real

difference for someone. It’s

about creating relationships.
