Our Mission
Tri-Sled’s mission is to create affordable, practical and innovative human-powered solutions for everyday lifestyle situations. We aim to create products which are compatible with existing transport technologies and suit a wide variety of human capabilities and activities.
Our Vision
Tri-Sled’s vision is for a more cohesive and community-based society which is less dependent and focused on fossil fuels and motor vehicles. Part of our vision is to assist in changing the current culture of transportation in Australia, which overvalues the role of motor vehicles and undervalues the potential of human transportation options.
Our Objectives
Tri-Sled’s products are created with a view of contributing to a more sustainable society. Each product is designed to meet one or more of the following objectives:
Improve rider wellbeing and mobility
Reduce dependence on fossil fuels through innovative transportation solutions
Raise awareness about alternative transport options
Increase the speed potential of human powered vehicles
Increase the diversity and practicality of human powered transport options
Encourage socialisation and community interaction through human powered transportation
