RIDES and GROUP EVENTS

WheelAdventures prides itself in offering disability friendly and wheelchair accessible motorcycle sidecar rides and tours. Unlike other motorcycle tours, WheelAdventures will tailor a safe, fun and exciting riding experience to suit your special needs and interests. Whether it's a quick run along the Sunshine Coast's fabulous beaches and tourist strips, whizzing around the spectacular Glasshouse Mountains, or zooming along the amazing arts and crafts trails of our Hinterland towns - the choice is completely yours.

The sidecar is fitted with a comfy sizable wheelchair, with a plush lambs wool seat cover (or you can use your own chair - be it manual or electric).  The wheelchair (or your chair) is secured to the Sidecar by a Q-Straint securement system.  A lap seatbelt and padded upper body strap keep you secure and comfortable in the wheelchair.  And there's plenty of leg room for those on the tall side.

While we specialise in providing this unique opportunity for the mobility-challenged and people with special needs, we take anyone who's young at heart and enjoys having a great time.

You can rest assured that apart from giving you a fun and exciting riding experience, your safety and comfort is the most important consideration. We ride at all times with utmost care and responsibility.

Hi James, just wanted to say a big thank you for taking the kids out today at the Sunshine Coast Link Family - Nambour Special School Vacation Care Program.  I know my son is still smiling when I talk about his motorbike ride...What a great business!  There are too few activities for people with special needs, your idea hit the nail right on the head!  Well done and thanks for making special people's day a bit brighter.  Rachelle, January 2010

GROUP EVENTS

Group events are proving to be very popular for both organisations and groups of individuals, as it is a great way of sharing the cost ...... and the experience.

Whether it's your work Christmas party, your organisation's annual get together, a birthday bash or just an excuse to have some fun with friends, WheelAdventures can help design an event to suit your needs.

Group event prices are based on the standard rates shown below. 

How you divide up the ride times between your group is entirely up to you.  For example, if you book a half day group event and you had 12 people in your group, each person could have one x 15 minute ride, or 2 people (1 in the sidecar and one riding pillion) could have one x 30 minute ride (swapping positions half way if that was suitable).

Contact us for more information and ideas on how your group event could be arranged.


Spiral Inc and other agencies were thrilled to have WheelAdventures participating in their Celebration of Abilities’ Disability Action Week 2009, held at Eumundi markets.  WheelAdventures was one of a number of organizations/community groups who provided fun activities for the disability and general community, during a day of celebration and community engagement.  Those who took a sidecar ride said it was great fun and one of the best things they’ve ever done!
