Alternatives To Bicycles

[FlyingMonkey]

I learned how to bike at the age of 26 and I was very scared. I fell many times but I eventually learned and was biking last year in my first burn. I guess what I am trying to say is that you're never too old to learn how to bike

I learned to snowboard at 45. I fell down a lot, got hurt, then got back on the board. I'm sure glad I kept with it and look forward to the snow every year now.

Life is so boring if you never step outside your comfort zone & take a chance every once in a while. Wear a helmet, fall down & get embarrassed a few times, & then enjoy biking the rest of your life.

One alternative that no one has mentioned yet is rickshaw. If you can get someone to haul you around all week that would be much easier than walking.

I brought a kickbike a couple years, not as nice as this one (image from http://kickbike.com/kickbike-scooters/, mine was homemade), but worked nicely...these things seem not so well known in the USA yet. Kind of like an adult kiddy scooter, light and fun. It worked really well to get around on the playa.

Has anyone considered a velocipede.. For people that can not balance or pump..

Strip the peddles/sprock.. Add a padded chest bar.. Could even motorize it..

Irish mail cart, maybe?



Pull with the arms while bracing with the legs. Looks pretty stable to me.
