Felix, 20, is epileptic. He has frequent seizures, as many as fifteen a day. In the week, Felix is at a residential college, receiving full time care, where he spends a lot of time in his wheelchair. It is important for Felix that he has opportunities to lead an active and sporty lifestyle on weekends. Ability Bikes in Regent’s Park have been an excellent way for him to get good exercise without compromising his safety. There are many ordinary things that Felix cannot do, such as playing football or riding a bike alone.
