The Mechanics of Human Movement: Our Strategic Alliance with Diverse Sports

Running a huge bike swap event series takes more than just software and bikes; it takes physical endurance. When you’re hitting 35,000 steps in a single day, loading and unloading bike racks, sizing people on bikes, and prioritizing which issue to deal with next, your body becomes your most important piece of equipment. Our Strategic alliance with Diverse Sports Physical Therapy is what keeps our founders, Chris and Laura, moving when the hardware of the human body starts to wear down.

Diverse Sports is a premier physiotherapy clinic that treats movement as a science. Their team of specialists doesn’t just treat symptoms; they solve the complex puzzles of injury and recovery.

Our Strategic alliance with Diverse Sports Physical Therapy is the reason Alberta Bike Swap is physically possible. This is a partnership built on resilience, expert recovery, and the mechanical maintenance of the human body. Without their world-class care, we simply wouldn’t be able to walk the 35,000 steps it takes to run one single event.

From extreme trauma to the different pain every day of an aging body, Diverse Sports has seen us through it all:

• The Major Milestones: They helped Laura recover safely from a broken L4 and L5 vertebrae and taught her how to bend her knee again following a complex total knee replacement.
• The Unexpected: They even solved the locked jaw Laura suffered after being hit by another cyclist while she was stopped at a stop sign during her daily commute.
• The Daily Grind: They keep Chris and Laura in event shape, ensuring their joints and muscles can handle the rigours of software development to fixing bikes to help other nonprofits.

We appreciate specialists who use data and evidence to get results. Just as our safety checks ensures the safety of the bikes we sell, Diverse Sports ensures the safety and longevity of the people running the show. They are the ultimate pit crew for our health.
