Re: Elderly Exercise?

Can you give us a photo Rachel? Here's my jalopy. It was a bit of a job to fit mudguards to it because the bike is designed to be as light as possible. Managed in the end though.


If you plan to ride off-road, consider changing the tyres to 'Dutch Perfect' ones. Quite pricey and heavy but they never puncture. Might be considered well worth it if you ever have to stop and mend a puncture in the howling wind and rain.

Re: Elderly Exercise?

Makes me think of getting one. Lot cheaper than forking out forra car.

Make sure you get a good lock and chain for it and never leave it unmanned unless chained to something, as in if you pop into a shop.
