    Oh noooooo

    So sorry

    Is sitting on seats hard as well? I imagine it probably is so some kind of recumbent trike, besides being very expensive, wouldn’t be a way to get you back riding…

    In which case I’m glad you’re able to enjoy those trails even in spite of the tragedies!

      I had to get a recumbent due to pain issues with a regular upright bicycle seat. I’ve owned a couple of them over the past 20 years or so, and they’re great.

      I’ve had scoliosis since before those accidents, so it’s a whole host of back issues. Sitting sucks, but is ameliorated by a quality cushion (a very thick memory foam pad I’ve had for a while now). I can’t sit on benches or hard seats for any length of time at this point.
