Cargo blues and ataxia in ms

[goghy]

Hi everybody does anyone with ataxia drive a cargo bike? Can you drive it? Is it hard? Like christiania bikes.

Hi Goghy, I don't know how to post a picture on here, so I will post you a picture of mine. Apologies to those of you who have seen it before. I lost my balance and my cargo bike has been a God send, my dog loves it. Anyway I will post you a photo, Jimeka

I'm looking forward to seeing picture. I was long distance road bike rider until I went numb last summer. The dream of riding again is a real life goal. Lynn

Hi Lynn, I feel the same about horse riding. My family arranged for me to go riding for the disabled but the thought of going round and round in circles instead of galloping in the open wild, maybe one day, but I am not ready for that yet. The advantage to the bike is that you can have a battery fitted, so if I peddle further than what I am physically able to, you can switch on the battery and it brings you home. Magic!

I was diagnosed in 1988 and balance is one of my biggest issues. My husband and I rented a tandem bike while on vacation and we had to return it because he could not compensate for my balance. Santa brought me an adult trike one year for Christmas and I LOVE it and use it every other day.

I'm thinking about an adult trike, but will wait and see what kind of remission I get. I haven't started any treatments yet..
