That said friend was recently dragged to an incredible 100-mile ride by the author of this piece who is a true superwoman and definitely more than capable of keeping up with her daughter now! In fact us mere mortals somewhat struggle to keep up with her now... Now there's an inspiring story indeed!!!

I have two recumbent trikes now, one e-trike and one 'acoustic' trike. They are very different, but each allows me to go many places in town. My orthopedist was enthusiatic about the trike over any other exercise except swimming, and since I don't swim much, this is the best option. I like the way you can see more, on a trike- you can look at the sky, see the wildlife, etc.
