The Big Life Fix with Simon Reeve
My first forum question.
Did anyone watch this weeks episode?
I cannot link to it as it's being repeated right now but it will be on iPlayer.
***SPOILER ALERT***
The look of joy on Oscar's face when riding his very own bicycles really was something. The possibilities, the independence, the freedom. The bicycle!
Careful though, the whole programme makes me cry, especially giving Graham the ability to "speak" again.
And last weeks, but that didn't have any bicycles in it.
Oh, I got the braking, but being an obsessive, I would love to know how they got the gears to work on the mountain bike? I did see a proper rear derailleur, but could make out no gear changer.
