Waverly turned in her small #Amtryke for a larger (and faster) Amtryke today! Rhett, her favorite human but better known as her brother, was anxious to get her out on the sidewalk to go fast 🥰 Her inaugural ride at home was fantastic! #Smiles#Ambucs#DadWin
Mario’s smile tells the story! He started with his first bike at 3yo, grew into his second one at age 7, and now has his 3rd #Amtryke at age 10! Mom says his muscle tone has greatly improved as well as his ability to verbalize his desire to ride. Yay!!! #Ambucs

Our chapter installation of officers banquet was this evening at Manzella's Italian Patio. Our outgoing president Don Dunlap (right) administered the oath. Meet our new 2025-26 president William Wade!
Lead us into the future sir! #AMBUCS#NewOfficersAndBoard#Volunteer
Owen is stylin’ on his new #Amtryke today! He got an upgrade from a 1410 to a 1412, and his old one was well-loved. We have no doubt he’ll love this one equally as well. Ride on, Owen! #AMBUCSRock#RidinInStyle
Joshua got his new ride today! #Amtryke is adaptable to any special ability. #Ambucs fundraise to GIVE these to the recipients. Contact your local chapter to join!
Jake was excited to get his new Amtryke today! Mom can’t wait for the weather to improve so the entire family can go for a ride again. Happy riding, Jake!
Hey everybody! Our annual Scarecrow Festival at Ambucs Park in east Urbana is October 12 from 10:00am - 3:00pm.
Games, barrel train rides, hayrack rides, a market, car show!
Concessions available throughout the day. Come play with us!
A half-day of meetings, a bus tour around Tulsa, cocktails and conversation makes us miss Sally L. Denhart even more! To help, a few more folks say hi!
On the tour we saw the Golden Driller, the home of Roy Clark (of Hee Haw fame) and the Woody Guthrie Center, among other sights.
One of our members, Sally L. Denhart, had a little mishap a few weeks ago which hampered her mobility, so she chose to not attend national conference. In her honor, we offer her (and you) a look at how much we miss her being with us. Enjoy!
A few of our chapter members are at the national Ambucs conference in Tulsa, OK and the festivities have begun! 🎼🎷🎹🎤🥁🎸
Watch for details & pictures of the fun we have when we gather from across the country to share ideas, make new friends, and renew old acquaintances.
It was a gorgeous night in Central Illinois and perfect weather for building Amtrykes outside! Six Ambucs (Scott, Don, Keith, Larry, Andy and Jon) and one future Ambuc (Hayden) met and assembled three bikes for upcoming giveaways.
Follow us for pictures of new riders next week!
13 Ambucs shared conversation, laughs, and fun tonight from the rooftop of @Barrelhouse34 in downtown Champaign. Oh yeah…and pizza and drinks!
If you want to join this fun, contact any member. We’d love to have you! #WeHaveFun#AmbucsRock#ComeJoinUs
GCC’s annual Road Rally was this past weekend. Our #Amtryke riders and their families come for a day of fun, networking, and adjustments. Even the adults get in on the fun! #AmbucsKnowHowToHaveFun#Ambucs
#Amtryke recipient was helped by his trike! Caleb's mom says:
"…exciting news…Caleb graduated from his Amtryke & learned to ride a bicycle independently! With much gratitude we are asking to return the trike so someone else can use it.”
Caleb had his trike for 4 years! YAY!
