Pedaling for Parkinson’s is committed to advancing our understanding of how physical activity impacts the motor symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease. - read more

For those patients or caregivers who are interested we provide individual and tandem cycling opportunities. We will develop customized cycling training programs that aim to improve overall motor function of Parkinson’s patients.

Parkinson’s patients, their caregivers and “healthy” individuals are welcome to join us in organized rides and bike tours across various states. Future plans include sponsoring cycling races and local rides to raise funds and awareness for Parkinson’s disease.
