As part of Move UBC we are officially launching the gearbox to the public and welcome you to our Try It Night hosted in Rec North’s run, roll, walk indoor track. This gives the light, warm, dry & safe environment to test out a piece of RAD equipment.
RAD Society’s newest adaptive gear library, the UBC Gearbox, is located at the UBC Student Recreation Centre. Whether you’re exploring trails, hitting the water, or cruising around campus, we’ve got the gear to help you. This Vancouver location houses a growing inventory of adaptive outdoor equipment ready to rent, bringing accessible recreation to the heart of the city.
