"We're fortunate to help out quite a few children today," said James Howard, president of REACHcycles. "You can see it in their smiles. That's the best part, you know, these days are great."
REACHcycles offers nine different bike models with various alterations. They offer cycles where the rider has the option to pedal with their hands, feet or both, as well as ones that help with stabilization.
The organization works with local physical therapists, Children’s Hospital of Richmond, Sheltering Arms and others to find people in Richmond who may want an AmTryke cycle.
