How it all started in Copenhagen
In the video, you can hear founder Ole Kassow share how his encounter with Thorkild changed his life, and how it all began with a bike ride with Gertrud from a local care home, a simple gesture that has since grown into a movement spread across more than 40 countries worldwide.
Why are trishaw rides important?
Anyone who has tried a trishaw ride knows why it matters: the rides create meaningful moments and enhance quality of life for passengers and pilots by reducing isolation, stimulating the senses, and reconnecting people with their communities. Research shows clear gains in both mental and physical well-being.
Here, we meet Rodney, a charismatic 95-year-old, who revisits cherished memories during a trishaw ride, showing how a simple ride can restore connection, confidence, and vitality in later life.
