‘Pedal Peeps gave all of us moments of lightness in some very dark years.’ ~Rachel, David’s widow.

Special celebration! Enjoolata Foundation stepped up & funded our 3rd trike replacement. The BEST surprise. They have supported us with core funding grants for a few years.

The trike is named ‘David Jack’ in honour of David who ride out with his wife Rachel with us for 5 years on our ‘All-Ages’ service.

Rachel gave a beautiful speech and she and David’s sister Alison ‘cut the ribbon’ 🎀 🎉

From Rachel’s speech:
‘David went on the trike almost every week when he could.And something magical happened. He came alive. His energy lifted. He smiled. He ate better. Every time, the effect lasted for days. Our families joined us too, from France, and his son and sister. Pedal Peeps gave all of us moments of lightness in some very dark years.’

3 pics at end: First ‘All-Ages’ service participants take the new trike for a spin. Last pic, David Jack Wickert riding out with his wife Rachel ❤️

Thanks too for the best charity base neighbours- their team always give us the warmest welcome. 🙏

Our annual survey always brings valuable comments… here’s one with ‘holiday season’ in mind… pics: Mix of our ‘All-Ages’ + ‘Elder Care Home’ ride services.

‘My daughter has profound and multiple learning disabilities, which means finding inclusive activities for our whole family incredibly difficult. Her care needs are high, and most outdoor activities aren’t accessible for her. That’s why Pedal People has made such a difference to us. Their All-Ages service is the only activity where my daughter, my son (who doesn’t have additional needs) and I can all enjoy time together as a family. It’s truly inclusive, well-supported, and thoughtfully run. As a carer, the holidays can be especially tough—often isolating, with little respite or support. The time we spend on the trike isn’t just great for my children; it also lifts a real weight from me. It gives us all a chance to relax, connect and make happy memories together.’

Alan, 93: ‘I really did enjoy it. It was out of this world!’ As a former gardener with council Parks we photographed him next to a flower bed at the lagoon. Volunteers Theresa & Jackie cycled out with him plus Andrew, both first-timers on our Elder Care Home Ride service. This service is crewed by our Volunteer Cycle-Pilot team.

Our All-Ages service has both side-by-side tandems like these or the ‘can upfront’ option in the other pics.

Alan, 93: ‘I really did enjoy it. It was out of this world.’ His first ride out with Volunteer Cycle-Pilots Theresa & Jackie on our Elder Care home rides.

First time ride for David 28 yrs (last pic) too, with his newly trained ‘Carer-Pilot’ Max. All-Ages & disabilities can book direct for this service online and we train carers/family to pilot on this service.

Trike naming & ribbon cutting! 2 replacement trikes -Elder Care rides. Joy of bringing their 4- wheelers to join our 3-wheelers! 50 supporters, crew with elders cutting the ribbons! 🎀 thanks to The Temple cafe for support 🙏
Epic thanks to for being our first ever full funder of a whole trike! & donors for 2nd trike.

Elder Care rides go out in pairs so we needed to replace both worn out trikes together!

4000 rides a year with super lean staff of just 2 fulltime and 50 volunteers makes it happen, only with community support.

Thank you!
