JUST because you’re in a wheelchair or can’t get around like you used to, doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the fun part of life. And WheelAdventures, a new service on the Sunshine Coast, is there to deliver the fun. WheelAdventures provides people with the chance to experience the thrill of seeing Queensland’s picturesque Sunshine Coast and hinterland in a motorcycle sidecar designed specially for wheelchairs. “This is a much-needed service on the Sunshine Coast which has an increasing number of mobility-challenged locals and visitors each year,” said owner-operator James Loughran. “WheelAdventures is the only business that is totally dedicated to the chair-bound. It doesn’t matter whether you’re 16 or 60, we can design a safe, fun and exciting riding experience just for you. Richard Jenkinson, 75, of Palmwoods, had the ride of his life through the hinterland and Glasshouse Mountains region. “It was a thoroughly exhilarating experience, and one that I would highly recommend to anyone,” he said. “The people at WheelAdventures understand and cater for people like me with special needs.” The company is fully accredited with Queensland Transport and has all the necessary insurances in place.
