Thank you. I'm so glad to have found this little family (or big family? how many members are there?)... what a great resource. I love stopping in here every night with my new questions ,and you guys are all so kind to stop what you're doing and offer advise.

Thanks, Truly. I DID have a good day. Started out fatigued from output on Saturday. But, got out again for a bike ride. This time on the hybrid bike. Went 16 miles enjoying the bike trail and all the wildlife (three moose, bald eagle, over ten blue heron, a beaver, river otters, loads of northern geese and various birds). Barely had enough energy to barbecue, but pulled it off. Thanks again for your kindness.

Thanks, truly!

Truly. To be honest I started out on my mountain bike on a trainer in my garage I had bike set up with grip style shifters from Sram as I cannot use my thumb on right hand. I use clipless pedals cause if I dont my right leg has a mind of its own. So it can be scary at times but I have left leg pedal set very light for panic stops. But I do go down Im not going to lie I ride mostly rolling trails and not much single track thats to techical for my abilitys

I then ventured in to road cycling and it is much eisier to get the miles in on a roady but you have more danger from stupid drivers I do this all to get return in my legs not really for the pure enjoyment because its kinda tough to do I have spasticity issues to deal with You may message me at any time or PM me and I will give you my number if you want to talk in depth about equipment or techniques I use Craig

Hi Truly. I read about your accident here and you are Truly amazing. I live south of Madison and did my rehab at the UW. There are a lot of activities around here for PWDs. I just need to take advantage of them.

Great new avatar picture. Glad to see you on the lake. Did you go back to the scene of the accident? We live in MN.
