iCan Shine uses a fleet of adapted bicycles, a specialized instructional program and trained staff to teach individuals with disabilities to learn to ride a two-wheel bike independently. Participants attend one 75-minute session each day for five consecutive days where they learn to ride while accompanied and encouraged by a volunteer. Gradually the riders discover the skill and joy of riding a bikeThe iCan Shine Bike Program runs Monday through Friday. Riders participate for the same 75-minute session all five days. No changing sessions or times. No cancellations or refunds after June 1st.
There will be an orientation meeting for parents/guardians and volunteers on Sunday, July 7th at 430pm at the same location. We ask that riders not attend the orientation meeting.
