“Roll Toward Recovery with Mike Weed” is a podcast by a stroke survivor and adaptive cyclist who rides three wheels and refuses to quit. Mike shares recumbent trike adventures, camping and trail stories, and real moments from life after stroke.
You’ll hear about steady, hard-earned progress, adaptive bikes, and the people he meets along the way — other survivors, family, and friends in the recovery and cycling community. Whether you’ve had a stroke, live with a disability, or just love human-powered adventures, this show is about finding freedom, one ride at a time.

The Next Ride — From an Old Trike to What’s Next
In this episode, I share what comes after the climb.
I rode the Washington Auto Road on an older recumbent trike — not new, not fancy, just something that worked.
After my stroke, I can’t speak like I used to, so I use this system to tell my story. And honestly, it’s been really good. It lets me keep going, keep riding, and keep connecting.
This episode is about the next chapter.
The future of recumbent trikes — and companies like Greenspeed that helped start it all — and what’s possible now with better design, comfort, and support.

I talk about what a newer trike could mean — more miles, more rides, more people getting back out there after stroke or injury.
This isn’t just about a bike.
It’s about what comes next.
From an old trike…
to the next ride.
