3 wheel adult bicycles



Recommended Posts

I feel like an idiot am nearly 46 and cannot ride a bicycle,never riden one. I have seen the bike shop with an adult one outside,but you tend to see only mentally disadvantage people on them. I am so tempted to get one though,but think I live in a major city, and we have to wear helmets whilst riding and then I would look real silly. Got to look into body combat classes or something else I suppose, just envious reading about all the bicyle bits on here.

I'm getting a trykke or trike, however it is spelled. I'm 56 and I probably will look silly, but who the hell cares?

I bought my mom one. She cant balance due to 2 artificial legs. But wanted to be able to ride arround with her grandkids. So I bought her one and she loves it. she can go to the grocery store with out any help. and they dont have to buy gas just to drive to the store. Makes her more independent.

She told me people always want to know where she got it, because they want one.

you know everyone.....if you have ever in your life witnessed someone being thrown over there handelbars, or a car hitting a bike, you would not care how silly you look wearing a helmet. It may not be the law in Indiana, but it should be

The bikes are wonderful, and allot of the people where my mom lives uses them allot to just pedal around the apartment complex.

I used a hybrid bike and a single speed cruiser bike when I first started.....

Hang in there...you will love it once you get on

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
