Penelope has Rett syndrome, a regressive neurological disorder that causes her to gradually lose movement and muscle strength.

She does so well with an adaptive bike in physical therapy — it helps her use and strengthen muscles she is losing while giving her safe mobility.

When she rides, the smile on her face says everything. It gives her freedom, independence, and pure joy.

For Penelope, it’s more than a bike — it’s hope, movement, and happiness.

My daughter has Rett syndrome, a neurological disorder that affects her movement and muscle control. She is slowly losing the ability to use muscles that once came more easily to her. In physical therapy, she does incredibly well using an adaptive bike. It strengthens her legs, improves circulation, and helps maintain the muscles she is at risk of losing. Most importantly, it gives her mobility and independence in a way very few things can. When she rides, she smiles and and brings joy.
