Olivet Nazarene University Trike Project Update

This update is from January 31, 2014. “ONU His Wheels Team has been making some progress after our long break.
Over the past 2 weeks, Ben and Britny have met a few times to take measurements of the trike to see where parts have room to be placed (i.e. motors, batteries, wiring, circuit board), and have designed a hopefully simple design for these. We have detached the hand pedals and the chain to free up the front end and are making plans to cut the front end soon to transform this into a caster wheel.

Follow Up from Taylor University Visit

Here is one very exciting thing that came from His Wheels International’s trip to Taylor University in December. John, a 13 year old friend of HWI, an engineering guru, who lives in Upland and who attended the December meeting was able to audit a January Engineering course at Taylor. Here is a HWI video that John did for us.

Thanksgiving Tool Delivery

Tonight Alice was at Wheaton E. Free’s Thanksgiving Eve. Service. One of our ministry friends mentioned that her family was going to Spring Arbor, MI for Thanksgiving, leaving early in the AM. We at HWI are thankful that these friends will deliver  two sets of bike tools to Spring Arbor University (SAU). From there they will go to a ministry in Hyderabad, India that is partnering with SAU and HWI on a few project. The bicycle service arm of HWI has ended but the international bicycle impact of HWI continues and sending tools is one of those ways.
