Become a Captain or Stoker and Download Forms

Please note: All Eyecycle participants need to be over the age of 21. Downloadable forms and our waiver are at the bottom of this page.

Becoming a Captain

So… you want to become a captain with Eyecycle and help the visually impaired enjoy the great trails of Denver. Great to hear, you’ll have the time of your life!

As a prerequisite, we do ask that you are comfortable on your own personal bike. Being comfortable on your own bike helps you be a more confident captain and will make your transition to a tandem bike easier.

You will give them important information about what is going on around you—sharp turns, starts and stops all need to be vocalized. Good communication will make the team run smoother and insure an enjoyable ride. Don’t worry, it becomes second nature very quickly.

We recommend you wear bikes shorts for a more comfortable ride. Please bring a water bottle and helmet if you have one. Otherwise we can loan one of ours to you.

Becoming a Stoker

Becoming a stoker is even easier than becoming a captain. All you have to do is choose a ride from our Eyecycle Schedule. We suggest wearing bike shorts. Yes, we know they look funny but in the long run you will be happy that you have them on to help against chaffing and soreness on your back side. We do have spare helmets for you to wear and you need to bring your own water bottle. You can download our Waiver form below.
