Trikes and (odd) bikes.

My wife, Shirley, died suddenly of cancer, three years ago. Since then I have been struggling uphill. My cycling blog became a therapeutic journal. Where I recorded my recovery from the shock of my loss. The house and garden need a lot of work. So much of the text and images are now about my "improvements." My purchase of an e-bike transformed my cycling after I passed 75. More recently I have had heart problems. Hopefully I have survived to tell the tale.

Black Rogers trike on eBay

Ken Rogers 22.5" Racing Tricycle / Trike | eBay

"A really fantastic Ken Rogers racing tricycle. Not for the faint of heart - this thing flys. It has been fully refurbished with new tyres and bar tape, all bearings are sound. Running 10 speed Shimano 600 gears shift smoothly with great power delivery to the one wheel drive. Jib out for the corners which is fun and slightly dangerous at speed. The frame is 22.5" and will fit people between say 5ft 8 and 6ft 2. I am 5 ft 10, slightly long in the leg and it is fine as pictured. It is on 700cs all round. The rear wheels are out of Longstaff hubs."
