What is
Cycling Without Age?
A worldwide Initiative
Cycling Without Age (CWA) is an international movement started in Copenhagen in 2012. It provides outdoor rides in purpose-designed trishaws for those not able to ride for themselves (aged, frail or disabled people), to give them the outdoor, “wind in their hair” enjoyment that younger and more able cyclists take for granted.
About Our Chapter
Cycling Without Age Sydney North has been bringing the pleasure of trishaw rides to the elderly, frail and those with disabilities in Sydney's north since 2021. We currently work with the BaptistCare residential care centres at Macquarie Park, and are expanding to new locations and new groups of passengers in 2025.
We launched our first trishaw in 2022 thanks to funding from City of Ryde Council and Westfield Chatswood's Local Hero program.
Cycling Without Age Sydney North acknowledges the Wallumattagal clan of the Dharug Nation, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we meet and conduct our rides, and we pay our respects to their Elders past and present. We extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
