Yeah, I love it. It's really fun to ride. Getting outside was something that I enjoy doing, and I wanted her to come with me. And so that was the goal, to get her outside. But also, the more I got to know Cambry, the more I realized that everything about accessibility is just super, super expensive.
There was other off-road wheelchairs out there that cost $10,000 or $20,000, but when you're dating... Um, that's not, uh, that's not a good day date, you know, price point. Um, so I decided to weld two electric bikes together to make that first prototype.
So the whole thing is just fun for us because like we've sold, you know, hundreds of these active wheelchairs, seeing people out and enjoying life and the outdoors and knowing that they didn't break the bank to get there. Like that's super satisfying, I think.
There's been a lot. I mean, one of my favorites is there's this girl up in Canada, actually, who bought one. And she just goes to the craziest national parks. There's a video of her crossing this rope bridge in one of our off-road wheelchairs. And I never really expected... it to be in that kind of extreme scenario.
