Several members of the National Federation for the Blind have organized a west-to-east tandem tour of the Katy Trail. There will be 7 blind riders serving as "stokers" on the tandems, and 7 sighted "captains" in the forward position of the tandems.
They are planning to cover the trail in five or six days, between June 16-23. They are still looking for one more sighted rider to serve as a captain of one of the tandems - is anyone out there interested? You would need to pay for the food, lodging, and support, but the tandem is provided. If you're interested in this opportunity, which sounds like a lot of fun and even a life-changing experience, you can contact James Grass at 209-296-8096 or jrg@waterfallsusa.com
