Objective:

To provide a safe and controlled environment for survivors to experience riding again with the help of a motorcycle simulator.

 

Details:

• Volunteer Coordination: Four trained volunteers will be present to assist participants with mobility aids and ensure they are comfortably and safely secured to the simulator.

​

• Equipment Handling: Volunteers will handle the transfer of personal equipment such as wheelchairs and canes, ensuring these items are within reach when the simulation is complete.

​

• Safety Procedures: Kevin, our simulation expert (referred to as Apex), will instruct volunteers on specific tasks to ensure the safety and comfort of the survivors during the simulation.

​

• Training: Prior to the event, volunteers will receive training on how to use the simulator, including emergency stop procedures and comfort adjustments.

Objective:

To facilitate a smooth transition for survivors from the simulator experience on to a motorcycle adapted to their specific needs gaining confidence and comfortability.

 

Details:

• Team Allocation: Eight volunteers will be divided into two teams: one at the catch zone and one at the release zone.

​

• Transition Management: The catch zone team will be responsible for helping survivors dismount from the motorcycle and prepare for the course ride. The release zone team will assist with the initial launch onto the course. Responsible for helping survivors mount the motorcycle.

​

• Minimum Presence: At any given time, there will be at least three volunteers at both the catch and release zones to maintain safety and support.

Objective:

To provide survivors with an opportunity to ride on a specially designed course that accommodates their needs.

 

Details:

• Course Setup: Volunteers will assist in setting up the course, ensuring that it meets safety standards and is suitable for the survivors.

​

• Safety Monitoring: Stations will be set up around the course with assigned volunteers to monitor safety and provide assistance as needed while the course is active.

​

• Emergency Protocols: All volunteers will be briefed on emergency protocols, including how to quickly deactivate the course and provide aid in the event of an incident.

Objective:

To garner valuable feedback and testimonies from survivors for the purpose of refining our programs and promotional strategies.

 

Details:

• Interview Coordination: Our partner organization, the Ride Again Foundation (RAF), will be responsible for conducting the interviews using a pre-set list of questions. 

​

• Time Management:  In order to give all survivors a chance to share their experiences, interviews will be kept to roughly 30 minutes.

​

• Post Podcast: Riders will be provided access to their Testimony. Details on when and where to gather or for RAF to distribute will be determined.
