 Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:45): Cycling Without Age has been running in Mansfield for over a year now, with two three-wheeled e-trishaws in town, and I was able to catch a lift with local Ross Martin at the recent Rosehaven open day. Although it was only a short trip around the car park to my car, Ross and I sat while Katrina Rekers did the cycling. Sophie Naylor and her crew have seen the concept take off in Mansfield. Support from the Bendigo Bank and a social inclusion action group grant allowed for the purchase of the two trishaws. The group have regular bookings from Bindaree retirement centre and Yooralla, allowing older residents and those with mobility issues to sit and enjoy the breeze on their faces. May the wind be always at your back.
