Thanks for replying. Your reply was exactly what I was hoping for, since I am planning a Pedal for Parkinson's event and want to be able to offer some options in bikes for people to try. Do you have a photograph of yourself in the recumbant trike? And would you be prepared to let me use your letter as part of a grant application for funding for the event?
