    One step at a time, got my new trike

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Still haven't been able to ride since the accident in September, BUT, just bought a catrike tadpole. I anxiously await the clearance from the pain and the doc to get on. My diamondframe days are done, but watch out recumbent land! Will send pics later, my friends stole the bike cause they are thinking about getting them for themselves after riding mine. The trike is SOOOOOOOOOO comfortable and fast. Anyway....just keeping you all up to date. Thanks, Invsblwmn

    A friend's DH rides a red catrike and he let me try it out once. That's one snappy little devil--turns not on a dime but on a grain of sand. And fast? You bet! Hope you and your "cat" are out on the road together soon!

    I am so excited for you!
    How are you doing?
    How's the pain?
    What color or recumb? If I remember, those ones come in array of colors! If it is the same one as I am thinking of, I saw it in purple the other day - really nice looking.
    Are you working much?
    Do you have any idea of when the Dr. will give you the A-OK?
    Will you post picts?
