Hello Radco.

Did you have to give up riding due to an injury or old age ?

Rich, couldn't help myself
Sorry to hear of your injury.

Have you thought about 3 wheels. Trike or Can-Am ?

I am very sorry to hear of your injury, mate.


I agree with Top Cat. A trike or a Can Am may be a good idea.

Sorry to hear that. I've had a few fusion surgeries, the lower back from stenosis, bad disks and spurs. Maybe a doc can fix you up. I didn't think I would ride again and I am, maybe not as much, but I do,
