An e-assist bike event was held at Hillsborough Park on Monday, for amputees and stroke survivors to ‘regain freedom independence’.
Paul Hallinan, ICE Trike dealer based in Cheshire, had his leg amputated after he shattered his femur and was then diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer in 2014.
He said: “I struggled for around 18 months trying to find something that would get me back outdoors and wheelchair attachments don’t really do it, they make you feel more disabled. But I was very fortunate to meet a friend who had one of these trikes and got on it and immediately saw the possibility.”
