Video: Healing through wheeling: Off-road wheelchair makes nature accessible

Geoff Babb and Oregon Adaptive Sports take the AdvenChair out in Shevlin Park, Bend, Oregon

It’s a wheelchair that resembles more of a mountain bike than a traditional wheelchair, and its purpose is to get people to beautiful outdoor areas that otherwise might prove impossible.

The all-terrain AdvenChair is the brainchild of Bend local Geoff Babb.

After suffering multiple severe strokes, Babb set out to develop a wheelchair like never before.

Central Oregon Daily News’ Eric Lindstrom joined Babb and the Oregon Adaptive Sports team as they took the chair for a spin at Shevlin Park.
