Other than that, it took feeling better before I was able to ride again, although many times I dealt with the pain afterwards. Somethings I just can't give up. Good luck. I hope you make it there soon.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-75668142444336419862012-06-18T11:54:14.571-05:002012-06-18T11:54:14.571-05:00Hi, I haven't ridden a bike in atleast five ye...Hi, I haven't ridden a bike in atleast five years. I find my wrist and my hands are in too much pain after an hour or so. Can you recommend a bike, that has easy break handles to grip and handle bars to ease the pressure on the wrist. I want to get back on the saddle, please let me know what bikes you ride and others I should consider.

The only way I can leave comments is if the blogger allows anonymous comments. Anyhow, I am reading your blog and as always, love hearing about your adventures!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-48652216277874668292011-06-22T08:07:52.816-05:002011-06-22T08:07:52.816-05:00Thrive, Congrats on getting back on your bike.

I hope your success continues and you have many rides this summer. <br /><br />Squirrel,I would love to do the charity ride with you. How fun! I remember you like to bike too. Good luck training and good luck to those feet.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-84435423719561027182011-06-21T16:06:39.857-05:002011-06-21T16:06:39.857-05:00Woo hoo!

If you lived in Scotland you could do the 50 mile charity ride with me in September. Should probably start training for that...<br />I find cycling easier than walking sometimes because my feet are one of my worst affected areas and the bike is easy on them. I worry about my hands and how I'll grip if they get bad but hey ho.. live in the present and all that :) Enjoy your rides!Squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00087794277683329143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-1511609697117798252011-06-21T15:25:48.622-05:002011-06-21T15:25:48.622-05:00Hi Cathy,

I just got on my bike this past weekend for the first time in over a year since RA onset. It was a MONUMENTAL milestone for me! Thankfully my bike has foot pedal brakes, or I'd still be off it. Hoping for continued "Happy Trails" to us both! <br /><br />Thrive with RAThrive With RAhttp://www.thrivewithra.orgnoreply@blogger.com
