    Ok from years of just getting out and doing it I've noticed that when it's bright our and if the sun is in the right spot I can't see a darn thing. But on good days like cloudy I can see for miles on miles. I love riding a dusk and early morning. Totally love riding a night with my lights flashing. Ok why am I posting this. To say this that from now on my trusty telescopic cane is traveling with me. I have found out there are places like the Wright Paterson Airforce Museum I really need it because of the crowds the people don't watch where they are going let alone where I'm was going this year. There are also parks here in Ohio where I could use it as a walking stick. Example the Adena mound and anywhere the ground is very uneven and there's a real risk of a sprained ankle at the least or worse falling. Oh and my vision is like 20/400 which is by the state of Ohio blind so Ya I'm admiting that I am legally blind but that ain't stopping me.

    The more you're out and about, the better off you'll be health-wise. Keep up the great attitude and pursue what YOU want to do, not what others tell you you-can't. :wink9:

    Some things may be hard, as evidenced by Limbless swimmer completes quest to link continents, but most things can be done with some forethought and True effort. :jiggy9:

    Saw the video hey that dude is totally cool. BTW A.D thanks you're the only one who hasn't tried frying me for the petition to get us in the olympic and Paralympic games. Notice I capped Paralympis and only lower cased the games where people try and fix them and use banned substances just to get an edge. Kind of like a normal sighted person competing in the Paralympic game in a blind orenated sport.

    Hoping that I get a scholarship so I can go train at the local Y during the winter instead of sitting on my fat ares and getting fatter. Really been feeling like I don't matter and that no one even give a darn how I look anymore. Oh and thursday I go and get my TT Path 8 redone can't wait. As soon as that's done I can ride again oh and going to make people mad at me but hey it's my trike.
    Only one butt will be allowed again to ride unless they totally take care of it.
