Jennie Bovard has been a lifelong cyclist and now spends part of her time putting butts on tandem bikes as a program coordinator with Blind Sports Nova Scotia. She gets a lot of joy from tandem cycling, and finds out who else feels the same. Ange Purcell is brand new to tandem biking. She shares what drew her to the sport, why group rides have quickly become a summer highlight, and how tandem cycling compares with riding a standard bike for someone with low vision. Jamie Penton has volunteered as a tandem pilot since Parasport PEI launched its paracycling program in 2009. He shares what keeps him coming back to the front seat. And Ron Walsh, a blind outdoorsman and adventurer, returned to cycling after more than 25 years away, taking on an ambitious tandem ride to raise money for his local food bank. From first rides to decades of volunteering to an epic comeback, Jennie is curious why people ride and why they keep coming back.
