Maine Points: Portland Wheelers

Danny speaks with Pete Ryan, Program Manager & Karen Schilling Board President
with Portland Wheelers.

Our Mission: Outdoor Adapted Biking Fun!

A 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2015. A volunteer-led nonprofit organization with a small and incredibly mighty staff.

Our wheelers are the people we serve – the ones we love to see smile! Wheelers are individuals who cannot ride a bike themselves but would love to go for a bike ride.

Our volunteers are the heart of Portland Wheelers. Volunteer pilots pedal our trikes, engage with our wheelers and share with them the experience of our community on three wheels. They bring miles of smiles to our wheelers.

Our Board of Directors are also volunteers, they steer the organization towards a sustainable future, providing foresight, oversight, and insight.
