The
following are testimonials from CosyCycleTM
customers
with physical challenges:
Judy & Doug wrote us about their son Jared:
" We are just so pleased
that your company exists and produces such a fine quality
product. The CosyCycleTM
is exactly what
our son, Jared, needs. We have been looking everywhere for
years for something appropriate and were delighted to discover
you right here in Canada."
"We have a great time riding it and Jared enjoys it
immensely. He can pedal and steer quite easily on his own
while being supervised. He just LOVES it. It’s everything
we thought it would be. A great HIT! We bicycle all over
town and get many admiring glances. Jared is just so happy
and proud riding it that he just smiles and waves to everybody.
I have to remind him repeatedly, “We’re not in a parade.
You don’t have to keep waving.” I think he’s so proud because
he knows it fits him just right. The slide adjustment on
the seat means it’ll be a perfect fit for the rest of his
life. We are just so pleased!!!"
"Thank you for your careful attention to the requests
of Jared’s physiotherapist for a foot rest should he choose
not to pedal for awhile, (which works great), and also for
the neat seat belt. It’s very well engineered, he can put
it on quite easily and it will adjust to accommodate for
his future growth."
"We are excited about next summer so we can try out
the bicycle carrier. We plan to visit some of the bicycle
trails in N.B., maybe P.E.I. including the trails in the
national parks. It seems this recumbent bicycle has opened
up a whole world of recreational pursuits for us as a family.
It’s amazing but his bicycle seems to fulfill our dreams
of being able to do things that are interesting and exciting
while meeting Jared’s mobility needs. He too is having his
dream fulfilled of being able to pedal along with us. I
don’t hesitate to tell people when they ask because they
often do, about your unique and great company."
"Please accept our heartfelt THANKS for making this
possible for us and other families of handicapped children.
We appreciate all your hard work. The CosyCycleTM
has certainly
changed our lives for the better especially Jared’s."
Terry from Phoenix, Arizona
writes:
"Several months ago while watching a local television
news program I saw a segment on a new product called the
CosyCycleTM.
The segment got my attention because the previews for the
piece told of a newly designed recumbent bicycle that opened
the world of bicycling to disabled people."
"This feature was of particular interest to me because
I am a 40-year-old woman with Osteogenisis Imperfecta, also
known as Brittle Bone Disease. I have had over 85 fractures,
and numerous orthopaedic surgeries to correct the effects
of the disease. While I have limited use of my legs, I have
used a wheelchair for the majority of my life. The thought
of my being able to use a bicycle was truly intriguing."
"I’ll never forget the thrill of that first ride on
the CosyCycleTM.
I couldn’t believe that I was actually riding a bicycle
for the first time in my life. One ride around the block
told me that owning a CosyCycleTM
was a must in
my life. Exercise is of key importance in sustaining my
health, especially as I get older. Weight control has been
a lifelong challenge for me, and I knew that riding a CosyCycleTM
on a regular basis
could play a major role."
"I have now owned my CosyCycleTM
for several months,
and never could have imagined the enjoyment that it has
brought in to my life. After spending a day at the office
in my wheelchair, it is a real treat to come home and ride
a bicycle for exercise and relaxation, something that I
never thought would be a possibility for me. The design
of the CosyCycleTM
allows me to ride
with another person, or alone if I chose to do so. Going
for a bike ride with my family and friends is an experience
that I treasure. While on the CosyCycleTM
I am “normal”,
just like everybody else, no longer a “person in a wheelchair”.
My legs now feel stronger than ever before, and I am excited
about the possibilities that lay ahead as I continue to
ride my CosyCycleTM."
Lorna, Brian and Kyle
of Edmonton, Alberta, have this to say:
"We are so overwhelmed; there is no adequate way to
express our thanks for all you have done for Kyle. Kyle
has loved riding bikes since he was a baby in a carry seat.
Before his accident he had a tiny two-wheeler bike with
training wheels, and after the accident he rode in a trailer
and then progressed to a large adapted two-wheeler with
gigantic training wheels. He had reached the stage where
he just couldn’t ride that bike anymore."
"When we saw your CosyCycleTM
at the Glenrose
Hospital, I knew it was the answer for Kyle. He was scared
to believe that “his dream” could come true. When it finally
did, he was so excited and kept signing, “My dream has come
true”."
"The first time we went out on the recumbent bike,
he sat there with his head held high, waving at people on
the street. He said, “I feel like a Prince!” Everyone in
the neighbourhood gave his ego a huge boost, yelling to
him it was a cool bike, or where did you get the awesome
bike? My heart was full to overflowing watching him as we
rode around."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you for “MAKING KYLE’S
DREAM COME TRUE!’"
