    Hi All,
    I was looking forward to an early morning ride when I duly tripped down the stairs and landed ‘awkward’ = result,,, foot at 90′ to the right and broken lower tibia and ankle. Never broken a bone before and wouldn’t wish this on an enemy.
    Told it will be about six weeks before I clip my shoes into the pedals – Gutted, new bike, new wheels reasonable weather forecast and here I am stuck sitting down with leg elevated reading every section of this website.
    🙁
    Enjoy, Trikeman. 😉

    Hi All,
    nearly the end of day one, no bike, no fixing and stuck indoors,,,, Gutted.

    Your comments have given me a good laugh though – especially the hand cranker. I could just see me on a contraption like that.

    Regards

    Trikeman. 😉

    That was probably said in jest, but wasn’t there something in CW about how training one leg can boost the other legs power?
