Robbie’s Riders, Grampy’s Charities and Sanibel Captiva Community Bank recently presented seven adaptive bicycles — each worth $3,000 to $5,000 — to Southwest Florida children at the bank’s Bridge Branch in Fort Myers.

Between the ages of 3 and 9, all of the recipients have medical issues such as spina bifida, developmental delays and cerebral palsy. The special bicycles and tricycles were provided to the children according to their individual capacities and needs.

The children will benefit from general strengthening, new proprioceptive sensory input and improved reciprocal coordination of the legs by riding the tricycles. They can also participate in activities with their families and peers and enjoy the childhood experience of riding a bike.
