Inclusive Cycle Forum

The Inclusive Cycle Forum is a CTC members' group with a difference because it actively works to support and encourage disabled people to use cycles.

It's not all hard work though - the Inclusive Cycle Forum also meets around the UK for inclusive rides on cycles of all kinds.

Guide to adapted cycles

Adapted cycles make cycling accessible to all, whatever your personal challenges. There are a wide range of disability cycles that suit people with a variety of learning and physical disabilities, as well as health issues. Here is a brief overview of what bikes are available.
An example of an adapted cycle - an upright hand cycle

This is an introduction to adapted bikes, but it is also important to remember that it's possible to modify a standard 2-wheel bike to suit your needs (e.g. by wiring brakes and gears onto one handle, adding a foot plate to a pedal or increasing handle bar height).

We mention a few particular manufacturers of disability cycles, but there are many other good makers all over the world - so it's worth exploring further.
