Adaptive bikes can be expensive, so we started the Borrow a Bike program! We make adaptive biking more affordable by loaning out adaptive bikes from our fleet of over 200 so that all children can enjoy the freedom of movement!
From our YCR2 Family:
This may seem so simple and not so important to the average family. For our family, & more so for my son, it puts him at par with peers his own age. He rarely has moments like this & when it happened to him, I cried with pure joy for one of the first times in his life, when he is on a bike, there are no disabilities.”

Borrow a Bike Client Portal
If you currently have a bike assigned, this is your receipt. You can see a picture of your bike and how big it is (to plan ahead for transport & storage), confirm all its parts (helps when the bike comes due), and check all your upcoming appointments or change appointment times.
Note: Pictures of the bike may not be up to date, and bike parts are subject to change until you pick up the bike. If you are assigned to a new bike later, the Client Portal will update to reflect your final bike.
In order to log in, you must provide your email address and your child’s name exactly as you provided them when you registered. We’ll then send you a login link. Please contact info@youcanride2.ca if you have any problems.
We will be adding new features to this soon!
“This program is amazing. You have given our son a chance to do (normal) things that other kids his age have been doing for years.”
