Adding 'Marybelle' to our fleet

 Earlier in the year I got an email from Jane Williams-Hu, the national co-ordinator for Cycling Without Age - Canada to forward a listing to our mailing list for Ontario Chapters for a (sparingly) used AMI model trishaw that was coming up for a private sale in Ontario. The trishaw was purchased privately by a Brantford businessman to provide rides for his mother, Marybelle, who was in a retirement home in Burlington.  Unfortunately, she passed away earlier this year and the forlorn trishaw named after her was a constant reminder of her passing.  He hoped it could bring as much joy as it brought her and so wanted to pay it forward.

Pilot Training videos, Handbook and Waiver

This page contains most of the information an aspiring pilot for CWAM will have to be familiar with.  It starts with our first Zoom orientation session for those interested in the program and is followed by the Zoom session we had outlining the 10 skills of a good pilot for all those who had submitted and Expression of Interest form.  I have embedded both these sessions below followed by the Q&A session following the 10 Skills presentation. Please take some time to view and study these short training videos that have been created by Lanark County CWA and being used with their permission.  They have a similar model of trishaw to ours. This video is on the battery and electric controls for the e-assist motor The next video is on Braking and Stopping the trishaw The third video is on maneuvering on curbs and uneven ground The fourth video is on loading and unloading passengers. After viewing these few videos, take a look as some provided by Cyclin...
