The freestyle motocross champion, Vanni Oddera, in 2009, is abroad for a competition. By chance, he is made aware about the difficult way of living of a disabled person and this meeting changes his life. Back in Italy, he begins to involve some disabled persons’ associations in his training. From the very beginning, their happiness is clear with many unexpected positive outcomes.

Biketherapy is: sharing one’s passions with less lucky people. In all his shows, Vanni Oddera begins to dedicate an important space to special kids.

Vanni Oddera creates a chain of solidarity that gets bigger and bigger until, in 2013, he is called to a hospital because a young oncologic patient wants to know him. Entering that department, Vanni realizes that even more could be done for those children and begins to think of a way to be able to bring a motorcycle to the hospital.

A great diffidence surrounds him, also for organizational reasons that seem to be unbeatable, but slowly he manages to find a chief physician who allows him to enter the ward with an electric motorcycle. All patients and families are simply excited about the day. Some videos go around the world and other hospitals contact him to bring the bikes to the wards. And so the “freestyle hospital” comes to life, which in 6 years brought the bikes to all the hospitals in Italy.
