I go by hyper here, but my name is Paul. I am here to lean about trikes. I own a Harley EGC and love my two wheels. My wife loves to ride on back w/ me, but has a very hard time getting on. Unfortunately, she has Multiple Sclerosis. The condition limits her frrom a lot of physical activities.<br />
<br />
We have decided to look into buying a trike. Thinking that this my be something we can do together and enjoy the outdoors. It may be easier for her to get on and off and we can also pull a small trailer with her power chair. ( Jazzy). She is always worried about being mobile once we arrive to our destination.<br />
<br />
Glad to be here, may God bless.....We are from west Tenn.<br />

Ps.

I plan on keeping the 2 wheels, hopefully!

Welcome Paul to the site from the U. P.of Michigan. I am glad you are taking the extra steps to include your wife in the enjoyment of the sport. Many people have to make modifications to make riding easier or even accessible because handicaps hold them back. Good luck, ride safe.

Welcome Hyper. Sounds like a plan. I know my wife finds it much easier to get on trike than bike.

Welcome Paul to Trike Talk. It easier for my wife also who has rheumatoid arthritis , because I don't have to be on the bike to hold it up. It's easier for me too. Best of luck to you in your search.
