HOLLAND, MI (WHTC-AM/FM, June 1, 2023) - Another sign that the health protocols that brought the normal routines of life to a halt more than three yea.
That fact is not lost on Alisa Peck.
Eager for relief from Fridayâs high temperatures, Peck joined three other clients from Aptivâa local service agency for those with disabilitiesâto venture out to Palmer Park on the promise of a trishaw ride along the cityâs paved bike paths.
After biding her time as the dayâs final rider, Peckâs patience was richly rewarded.
âOhhhh .
I like this,â she said, smiling wide as she and âpilotâ Cathy Blackburn slowly rolled out.
Dubbed Cycling Without Age, the trishaw program is a collaborative effort between the Rock County Council on Aging (RCCA), which owns two of the $12,000 imported bikes, and the city of Janesville. Each Friday through Aug. 27, rides are provided free for seniors ages 55 and older and adults older than 18 who are otherwise unable to ride a bicycle.
