Tandem bicycle club in Ecuador's capital leads blind riders to new adventures

In Quito, Ecuador, a tandem bicycle club called Ciegocleta provides blind riders with opportunities for new adventures. Every Sunday, the group meets to enable participants to experience cycling through tandem bicycles, transforming how members approach mobility and recreation.

Franklin Ochoa, a participant who lost his eyesight 16 years ago, credits the bicycle club with enabling him to pursue new adventures that he never considered during the time when he was able to see.
