Push brakes and paddle shifters on ICE Sprint 26
We are putting together a trike for a gentleman with a neurological condition that inhibits "pulling" action with his hands.
He has settled on an ICE Sprint 26 recumbent trike and we have determined a configuration that will allow him to operate his trike with "pushing" actions.
The pictures show a prototype solution. We intend to mount the brake levers backwards so they operate with pushes rather than pulls. Trigger shifters mounted upside down and on the "wrong" side allow the paddles of the shifters to be actuated with pushing action using the palms of his hands.
The cost to configure this is nominal.

John Jackson has finished his trip on his Catrike Expedition in Centralia, Illinois.
He started in Sacramento on March 7. We had a lot of fun wrapping up loose ends with him.

Once again, we had the opportunity to turn out in support of Kyle Bryant and his band of amazing people.
350 riders rode whichever ride worked best for them: 60, 40, 10, 5, or 1 to raise funds for research to cure FA.
An incredible $110,000 was raised as well as the hopes of all.
