MemberThe hand bike would not work for me – my issue is environmental overload not physical inability. I do get physically fatigued but I take activity when I can and rest when I can’t.
I could ride a bike in a large parking lot, but the road side goes by too fast I lose focus and start to stammer and tremors begin. I have to hold my wife’s’ elbow when we get into crowds. I did try a recumbent but it didn’t work either. I move through life in slow motion in real time.
I overdid my introduction to Walking (for exercise). Was averaging 3.4 miles day. Overdid and am now recovering from Achilles Tendonitis. Will start to walk again soon. Will take it a bit slower. 2 – 1 1/2 mile walks. One in the morning and one in the afternoon. Maybe I should try the bike again.
Again – welcome.
