A new British-made motorcycle for wheelchair users was the start of this year's Mobility Roadshow in the UK.
The Conquest is based on BMW 850 or 1150 motorbikes which have been integrated into a racing car-type aluminium body shell.
Its creator, Alan Martin, came up with the idea after his son became disabled following an accident.
The company will be launching the Conquest in August and hopes to sell 100 in the first year of production.
The bike was on show at the Mobility Roadshow, an exhibition of products for people with mobility impairments, at Donnington Park in Derbyshire over the weekend.
Excellent news for people with disabilities who want to continue living an active and as normal as possible life
Anything that makes disabled people happier gets my vote, but I don't see how that is a motorcycle really. Being on a tricycle is nothing like being on a real bike.
The National Association of Disabled Bikers has also been doing sterling work for some years and has highlighted how bikes can be successfully adapted for various disabilities: http://www.nabd.org.uk/adaptions/javaindex.htm
