Pedaling For Parkinsons™
Parkinson's disease is caused by a breakdown in the nerve cells in the brain. The affected nerve cells do not produce enough dopamine, which affects your ability to move the way you want. The mission of Pedaling for Parkinson's is to improve the quality of life of Parkinson's disease patients and their caregivers.
