I seen a guy at DelMarVa bike week a couple of years ago.. right leg amputated up high near the hip.. Was riding a two wheeler. I thought at first, why doesn’t he get a trike, but then I thought about it.. If he can do it and doesn’t have to ride a trike, awesome. Maybe one day he’ll decide to get one, but for now, he’s doing quite well one legged. Nothing but respect for him.

I saw a guy with what looked like a homemade “bionic” leg from the knee down doing donuts in a dirt field.

God bless ‘im.

The difference is, I don’t tell people what they “should” ride and I don’t condemn them for what they *do* ride.

That’s what “freedom” is supposed to mean.

Now, my wussy other half and wussy self are going for a ride on our Codger-Cycles.

See ya later!

I purchased my Kendon 2 rail trailer from a guy paralyzed from the waist down. He let go of a zip line too soon as a teen. His bike was a Harley with a side car. He used an electric winch to pull the bike onto the trailer. He sold the trailer to me when he changed to a CanAm Spyder. There’s always a way if you’re driven to achieve your objective.
