Hey Guys,

During this week RideOn! reached a decisive accomplishment, the Rifton Adaptive Tricycle finally arrived! This means the team can start building the tricycle while also taking measurements and gaining a better understanding of what we can do with it; most importantly, what limitations and freedoms the tricycle offers.

This week, as usual, the team had no shortage of paperwork to complete. The monumental Preliminary Design Architecture document was finalized, with crucial content being done and researched by the team. With this work complete, the team now has a deep and fundamental understanding of the next steps for the project and what needs to be done to achieve its primary goals.

At this week’s Wednesday meeting, the team reached a critical benchmark, as for the first time, we switched the roles of the team members, having every member of the team have a new role in the project. Here is a list of the new assigned roles,

• Team Leader – Hanson Tang
• Meeting Facilitator/Timekeeper – Danilo Inestroza
• Scribe – Antoine Martinez Beau
• Research Librarian – David F. Castillo
• Blog and Web Editor – Cesar Brasileiro de Alencar
• Financial and Travel Coordinator – Arabella G. Readey

For next week, the team is looking forward to building the tricycle and eventually moving it to Dr. Cardenas’ office.

This is it for this week.

Thanks for catching up with us!

Have a good one and remember always RideOn!
