Empowering survivors through outdoor exploration and accomplishment, on mountain bikes.
At Wellness on Wheels, your one-on-one adventure is at no cost, and your instructor is a fellow cancer survivor.
We ride on Kingdom Trails in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. We provide a private experience (1-on-1), suited to your comfort level and needs. Your tour/lesson, day pass, and bike lending/rental are all at no cost to you.
We provide a supportive and expectation-free environment to experience the sport of mountain biking.
You may be newly diagnosed and want a day away in rural Vermont to focus on something different. You may be in the middle of treatment and hoping for a gentle ride. Or you may be 10 years from diagnosis, feeling healthy, and simply looking to feel more like your body is your own again.

Your Guide
Ali is a two-time breast cancer survivor. She fell in love with mountain biking on Kingdom Trails in East Burke, Vermont, a few years after her first diagnosis. She now spends time in both Burke Vermont and Moab Utah, logging close to 3000 miles on her mountain bikes each year.
I was a lucky recipient of a session with Ali through this program. Her competent, compassionate coaching allowed me to overcome my fears. I found the experience empowering and exhilarating. My identity as a strong woman, despite the challenges from breast cancer, grew….thanks to Ali. ~ MS, Wellness on Wheels program participant
