Mason has learned to ride the adapted tricycle at school, all by himself! I have so many hopes for Mason, and this is a big one! I have wanted this for Mason since he was two. We tried different trikes at home, tried adapting them ourselves, but Mas was never able to grasp the concept of pedaling, and his right leg would lock because of the cerebral palsy.
More than anything I want Mason to have some freedom, some type of independence, and to be able to enjoy typical activities with other kids. This is one big step in that direction!
There is an organization called OC Spokes that will actually build an adapted bike for kids with qualifying disabilities. I plan to get one for him! We will keep you posted :)
