LEVA-EU member ICE Trikes completed a busy weekend of exhibiting, engaging with visitors and partaking in panel discussions at the National Cycling Show in Birmingham in March.
The recumbent trike specialists completed a successful weekend exhibiting at the National Cycling Show at the NEC Birmingham, UK, last month, exhibiting their wide range of trikes and speaking to people and organisations about accessible cycling options.
On the ICE Trikes stand was a diverse selection of cycle models, including the record-breaking ICE VTX trike (disabled Marine Corps veteran Michael Ricci recently broke six new World Records riding his VTX through Death Valley in California, USA). Back at the NEC, the legendary British cycling champion Ed Clancy OBE tried the ICE VTX himself.
ICE Trikes closed out the weekend by taking centre stage in a panel discussion on the theme of ‘Wheels of Change’ with charity Wheels for All, alongside fellow LEVA-EU member Van Raam, to discuss the benefits of ICE trikes and how accessible cycling can improve people’s lives.
ICE Trikes wrote in a social media post: “We love to meet people and connect with new cyclists and organisations who for many, have never seen our trikes or knew that trikes were an option for them.”

Of those participating in the programme, 95% said that it had made them feel more welcome and included in the sport.

Ahead of the announcement, British Cycling’s National Disability Manager, Lyndsey Hollands, said:
“This is an exciting step in our long-term ambition to break down the barriers which disabled people when accessing cycling. It’s the first time British Cycling has partnered with an adaptive cycling manufacturer, and will have an incredibly positive impact on our Limitless programme and the ability of clubs to create more opportunities for riders.
“It’s great to see some our Limitless Focus Clubs already receiving their trikes, and the joy on their riders’ faces, and we’re excited to see the partnership flourish in the years ahead.”
Manufactured in Britain, the premium recumbent trike models are built to order to ensure a refined and comfortable ride for riders with a wide range of impairments.
Adrian Davies, Managing Director of ICE Trikes, added:
“Ice Trikes is incredibly proud and honoured to partner with British Cycling and to be part of Limitless; as a UK employee-owned business, our purpose is to ‘put a smile on people’s faces through inspired cycle engineering’ and we have so many customer stories of just how our trikes have changed their life for the better – regardless of age, impairment, or the ability of the rider. With British Cycling we can work to break down barriers, inspire change and create more inclusive cycling opportunities.”
