Wind Spirits (風神車隊) is the name of a handcycle enthusiast group composed of people with physical disabilities. Since its establishment, Wind Spirits has been actively involved in various activities aimed at helping people with physical disabilities lead an active life. Through the promotion of handcycles and a network of people passionate about passing on their experience with newbies, people with disabilities are being encouraged to “overcome the timidity in their heart”.

Starting with only a dozen or so members, the group is now 100-plus strong including volunteers. The group not only provides professional training and regularly holds life-sharing sessions, but also organizes an annual handcycle island tour, which is fast becoming a must-do for members of Wind Spirits. In spite of the blood, sweat and tears, the island tour gives disabled participants a rich harvest of precious memories beyond the comprehension of most able-bodied people. With the help of handcycles, disabled people are rediscovering their smiles and getting back the courage to strive ahead in life. Wind Spirits is committed to keep riding forward and helping disabled friends find self-confidence and tap into their own unlimited power within.

風神車隊是由一群身障者所組成的手搖車隊,而從成立以來,風神車隊秉持著讓身障者走出戶外的精神,積極參與各項活動,向更多人介紹手搖車,也運用學長姐傳承經驗的方式,鼓勵身障者朋友們,「克服心中的膽怯」。

成員由原本的十幾個人,發展到現在加上志工已超過百人,不僅展開專業訓練、舉辦多場的生命講座,每年的手搖車環島更是風神車隊的年度大事。環島過程雖然有淚有汗,但收穫的卻是比普通人更加珍貴的回憶。利用手搖車,身障朋友們找回笑容、找回生活下去的勇氣。風神車隊將會一直騎下去,幫助更多身障朋友找回信心,發現自己無限的力量。
