trying to post again!!!
Well, I bought a trike in May. It has been wonderful. I have been going all over my town. I even go shopping with it. Did all the back-to-school shopping riding bike. Two of my kids love it! My middle child doesn't want to be seen with me on my trike, she is embarrassed. I try to ride everyday, even if just to local gas station for a soda and treat. I have lost 5 pounds and feeling much better. Getting out helps my depression and the exercise has helped my balance and energy level. I am not looking forward to the winter. What will I do then? Please help me brainstorm some ideas to get out of the house safely without having to call for a ride from friends. I have been asking for rides so much that I feel guilty.
Yesterday I broke my bike. My shoelace got caught in the chain. I was able to pull it out, but broke the chain guard off part way. Called the hubby to bring a screwdriver to just remove it cxompletely. I really bent the guard and can't get it back on. I am afraid to ride without the guard on. I had trouble when my shoelace was stuck the first time. I was lucky not to fall. Don't want to try again might not be so lucky. I am thankful this didn't happen during the summer or fall. I can wait to fix it until spring, but now what to do?
