Giving the elderly a chance to "feel the wind in their hair" is the aim of Cycling Without Age (CWA), a non-profit organisation which offers senior citizens free rides around Singapore on electric-powered trishaws.

But since May, CWA's three-wheeler initiative has been at a standstill after the organisation was informed by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) that it is breaching the Active Mobility Act, introduced last year to regulate the rising number of transport devices being used on the Republic's pavements.
