Two, one. Otis Eliphan always loved biking.As he got older, he lost his sight, but not his love for cycling. So he figured out a way to stay on the road by riding in tandem1 with sighted friends. He passed away in 2013, but those friends turned his idea into nonprofit starting with 20 tandem bikes. I tell her which pedals I prefer to be up higher, so I would like the left pedal. Today In Tandem volunteer is for very blind, low vision, and other disabled riders around New York. But before they do, each volunteer is asked to close their eyes for a split second as they bike to feel what it’s like. Then after a short course, In Tandem biking, they are ready to meet their passengers. Maria, and then we’ll have Bill.

二,一。Otis Eliphan一直都很喜欢骑自行车。随着年龄的增长,他失明了,但他对自行车的热爱并没有消失。于是,他想出了一个办法,和视力正常的朋友一起骑车,这样就可以一直在路上骑了。2013年,他去世了,但那些朋友把他的想法变成了非营利组织,从20辆双人自行车开始起步。我告诉她我更喜欢哪一个踏板高点,所以我想要左边的踏板高点。今天 In Tandem 组织的志愿者为在纽约各地的失明、低视力、和其他残疾骑手服务。但在此之前,每位志愿者都被要求在骑车时闭上眼睛一小会儿,感受一下这样骑车的感觉。然后经过短期的双人自行车训练,他们准备好迎接乘客。Maria,这是 Bill。

The volunteers are a varied2 group. There are lawyers, doctors and IT specialists who give up their time to ride with someone who has forgotten what it feels like to pedal. Nice to see you again. You’re not wearing a pretty dress this time. As the bikes fan out across New York City, service dogs wait patiently for their owners. I was nervous the first couple of times that I did in tandem because you’re in someone else’s hands, you’re totally dependent on them to steer3 the bike and coordinate4 with you. I’m Ben. Hi, I’m Susan. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.I think the seats probably the right height. Ok, great. So I’m ready to roll when you okay. Let’s 3, 2, 1. They have nothing in common except for the 30 minutes they will spend biking in tandem. But Ben will do his best to let Susan feel the sensation she has long since forgotten. Over to the left there’s I think a baseball game going on, maybe it’s softball, actually. It looks like softball. Normally when I ride around the park, I would never describe what I’m looking at.

志愿者是一个多样化的群体。有律师、医生和IT专家放弃了时间,和一个忘记了踩踏板感觉的人一起骑车。很高兴再次见到你。你这次没穿那件漂亮的衣服。当自行车在纽约市散开时,服务犬耐心地等着主人。前几次我合作的时候很紧张,因为你在别人的手里,你完全依赖他们来协调驾驶自行车。我是本。你好,我是苏珊。很高兴认识你。很高兴认识你。我想座位的高度应该合适。好了,好了。所以当你没事的时候,我就可以开始了。3 2 1。除了一起骑30分钟自行车,他们没有任何共同之处。左边是棒球比赛,可能是垒球。看起来像垒球。通常当我在公园里骑车的时候,我从来不会描述我所看到的东西。

There’s you know the tree over there, a dog running around. But they seem really enjoyed. Absolutely, it’s joyous5. I always find myself smiling for no reason as I’m biking. Since its creation in 2013, In Tandem cycling has brought together more than 600 volunteers and 400 visually impaired6 passengers. Volunteers will spend the winter months raising money for new equipment to make sure they’re right back here next summer.

你知道那边的那棵树,一条狗在跑。但他们似乎真的很享受。当然,这是快乐的。骑自行车时,我总是无缘无故地微笑。自2013年创立以来,In Tandem 双人自行车运动已经汇集了600多名志愿者和400多名视力受损的乘客。志愿者们将在冬季为新设备筹集资金,以确保他们明年夏天能回到这里。
