Title: It's A Start
Post by Patti on May 7^th, 2009, 11:17pm

My husband and I were out in Richardson last Saturday and I convinced him to go to RBM with me to kill some time. I dragged him over to the recumbents and after much pleading, convinced him to just sit on a couple of them. It wasn't much, but it was a HUGE step for the him. This is a man to whom any bike costing more than $150 is usually invisible. If the storm hadn't blown up right then, I might have even convinced him to try riding one. Baby steps. We just have to keep taking baby steps...

[smiley=thumbsup.gif] Way to go Patti, just keep taking those little steps.
Keep in mind, there are plenty of us who have a bunch of different style of bents who are always happy to let people test ride. Get him out to a "little outing" at White Rock some weekend when you know lots of the bent riders are going to be there ;), let nature takes its course [smiley=lolk.gif]
