Calgary by Viper #8: Stephen Avenue Mall (04/07/2014)

Count the Car2Gos as I travel by Viper from the Shaw Millenium skatepark and the Mewata Armouries east along Stephen Avenue to City Hall.

In these videos I travel throughout Calgary, Alberta, Canada from my home in the inner-city northwest using my Team Hybrid Viper (a powered wheel that attaches to the front of my regular RGK wheelchair). I am usually going about 18kph (11.5mph) on the flats, although in one video I get up to 40kph. Calgary is a very open, clean, and accessible city that is well suited by bike travel.

Note that these videos and my driving skills (or lack thereof) are in no way endorsed by either Team Hybrid or the City of Calgary, and should not be emulated.
