22.01.2022 What a fabulous day and congratulations to Valerie, Jess and Kath for their wonderful efforts during training today. It was a pleasure to work with you and watch your confidence grow as you became more familiar with riding the Arcare Aged Care trishaw. We appreciate the ongoing support we receive from Arcare Aged Care in loaning us their trishaw. It is great to have a few more ladies on the team. We are all looking forward to becoming a part of the landscape at Paradise ...Point and throughout the Gold Coast. One thing we may have to work on is riding with a periscope for our more vertically challenged people when the canopy is being used - see the second photo to see what I mean. A huge thanks To Rob once again for coming down to help out with training today. Your guidance, advice and assistance are invaluable. Thanks mate! Now here's a coincidence - Pilots Rob, Colin, Valerie and Wayne all share the same birthday - this Wednesday 21st October. How amazing that 4 people in one small group share the same birthday? It is going to be a great celebration day on Wednesday. Well done team, congratulations and happy birthday for Wednesday. See more

16.01.2022 Generosity is the first guiding principle of Cycling Without Age. It works its magic at every level and the team at Cycling Without Age - Gold Coast experienced it in abundance last week. It is humbling to have been the recipient of generosity from so many wonderful people and organisations and I have been asked to express our sincerest thanks and appreciation. We would like to thank our friends at Top Fresh Bakery Labrador for generously donating some wonderfully fresh bread... for our Bunnings BBQ on Saturday as well as the many people who came to support us and help fundraise for our next trishaw. Speaking of generosity, magic and our next trishaw, the team were blown away by the most amazing couple who arrived to say "Hi, we love what you do. Oh by the way, we'd like to donate one trishaw." For the first time ever, yours truly was lost for words. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Your gift will continue to bring joy to so many for a very long time. We are putting a special call out for a bike mechanic to do some maintenance on our hydraulic brakes. If you know of a bike mechanic who can help us for an hour or so, please let us know. See more

03.01.2022 Cycling Without Age - Gold Coast joined with our wonderful friends and partners Tim Rogers and Dana Fink from Cycling Without Age - Sunshine Coast for the second relationship building meeting with the CEO of Bicycle Queensland Rebecca Randazzo (on screen) and Director of Advocacy Andrew Demack today. It was a highly productive meeting and we thank Rebecca and Andrew for being so enthusiastic about the amazing achievements of our teams at Cycling Without Age - Australia. We are also excited about the possibility of working closely with Bicycle Queensland to share and promote the joys of cycling for every member of our community regardless of age or mobility restrictions.

02.01.2022 Yesterday we continued our training at Paradise Point Parklands with Colin Mancey riding scout with Rob while fine tuning their trishaw riding skills. Congratulations on such a successful day. It became obvious later in our chit-chat session why they both worked so well together, both have the same birthdays - next Wednesday 21st October. You can say a very special happy birthday to Rob and Colin and help them support our most vulnerable citizens with a donation to Cycling Without Age - Gold Coast: https://chuffed.org/p/cycling-without-age-on-the-gold-coast Maybe we will even reveal how old Colin will be on Wednesday.
