Seven year old Sean wasn’t suppose to want to ride a bike. After suffering a stroke when he was two days old, Sean’s parents were told he would never walk, never eat, and never talk.

His parents heard about a remarkable man in Illinois, who, as a result of his own special needs children, has a tremendous amount of information and selection of adaptive bikes.
