BUILDING BETTER

LIVES
SEE THE BIKES

We co-design, brand and sell trishaws that allow everyone – regardless of age, ability or fitness – to experience the freedom of exploring their surroundings from the saddle of a bike. 

Trishaws and wheelchair bikes

The new Triobike Taxi CL is easy to ride, steer and comfortable for the cycle pilot and the co-pilots. It is designed to be practical, stylish and safe at the same time.

Our love for bicycles

After founding Cycling Without Age, I started making collaborations with manufacturers of quality, adapted bicycles and cargo bikes to make sure communities around the world could start riding regardless of age and ability. 

The idea of riding a bike is strongly associated with freedom – of movement and of spirit. We’re on a mission to ensure that nobody gets left behind.

– Ole Kassow

In partnership with the leading cargo bike manufacturers, we design, customize and sell high quality, beautiful and user-friendly trishaws – delivering a smooth and enjoyable ride every time.

They accommodated to our needs as a start-up, offering a payment plan and delivered bikes that allowed the first older New Yorkers to enjoy rides around Central Park. Thank you Copenhagen Cycles!

Chris Lawrence, Cycling Without Age NYC, NY

Purchasing our trishaws from Copenhagen Cycles has been a great experience, from the initial contact and quote through shipping and delivery. They have communicated openly and honestly about build time and shipping. 

John Ludwigsen, Cycling Without Age Door County, WI

We found the application process accessible, encouraging and helpful. Both of our trishaws were shipped quickly and safely from Copenhagen Cycles with fast, clear communication and direct personal support.

Cycling Without Age is a worldwide movement that aims to provide joy and vitality to older adults through the magic of the bicycle. Through the simple act of sharing a bike ride, it weaves a sense of community and gathers unique and invaluable stories, unlocked only by the wind and wheels.

Technical Support

Our aim is always to keep you riding. Bikes and parts can break or you may be missing a small but significant bolt. Whatever the problem, our job is to help you out.

We hope you will

briefbutspectacular In this episode of Joyride, we meet @cyclingwithoutage founder (and BBS alum!) Ole Kassow as he guides four riders, including 95 year-old Carl Nyholm, through his hometown of Copenhagen, Denmark. The cloudy day doesn’t stop our riders from enjoying themselves. Our only regret is that we didn’t get Carl some good snacks to save for later!

briefbutspectacular 91-year-old Janey arrived in San Francisco during the Great Migration of Black Americans from the South.

In this episode of Joyride, she returns to Golden Gate Park—a place filled with memories from her youth but long out of reach. What she doesn’t know is that we’ve arranged a surprise: a jazz serenade, orchestrated in partnership with Artists & Elders (created by For You Performance Group), to bring the music she loves back to the place she’s missed.

Joyride is streaming now at PBS.ORG/SHOW/JOYRIDE.
