Origins

The Lower Hutt Chapter of Cycling Without Age is a registered charitable trust that was established in January 2023 to provide a living and dynamic memorial to Olivia Marchant, who passed away the year before.

Cycling Without Age is a non-profit organisation connecting those unable to ride for themselves with their community and the outdoors by providing free rides on trishaw ebikes piloted by volunteer cyclists.

The Trishaw

It is fitting that our original trishaw is named Olivia.

Olivia is a Triobike model, dubbed as a couch on wheels.

The Triobike is ergonomically designed to be practical and stylish. It has a spacious and comfortable passenger seat with a very relaxed sitting position.
