Explore Omaha trails and experience the enjoyment of the outdoors on wheels.

The Wheel Club is an adaptive biking program that offers adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities the opportunity to explore and enjoy outdoor trail riding while spending time with family and friends. Trail rides typically take place in Aksarben on the Keystone Trail.

Our club’s cycles are three- and four-wheeled tandem designs that allow pairing of an able companion rider with a person with a disability. Activity technicians are available to assist with cycle selection, rider fit and comfort. The technicians also serve as co-riders or participants can choose to ride with a family member or friend.

Details and Schedule

The Wheel Club is held on seven consecutive Sunday afternoons from May through June and September through October.
