Rehab Ride Report
Apr 12^th, 2012, 6:52pm

been doing my trike riding rehab around the block for a little over 1 wk now...started out with going 1/4 mile on easiest gear as the doctor said no tension on the hip....today I got up to .85 mile in about 18 minutes time...I played around with the gears to see how much tension my hip could take and though I never got out of 1st gear, I tried all the 7 choices in that gear. My block is 1/2 mile around and fairly level with a little rise as you enter both blocks. I made the slight uphill fairly easy.

Getting moving after something like that isn't easy, and you're obviously motivated -- especially taking almost 20 minutes to go less than one mile!
