The book's message is simple and direct: get up, get out, and keep on rolling down life's highway. <strong>Smart advice for seniors and physically disabled people who want to stay mobile and active. </strong></p><p>- - - </p><p>This book chronicles one senior citizen's struggle to maintain his independence when he is forced, at age 85, to stop driving. In an effort to maintain his mobility and avoid the ever-threatening wheelchair, he plunges into a search for something -- be it a rollator, recumbent bike or adult trike -- to substitute for the loss of his beloved car, his personal chariot. He knows that bikes of all sorts are used for transportation and commuting in Europe. Why not here? In the process he creates <strong>a beginner's guide to alternatives to driving for the millions of folks worldwide faced with the problem of slowly declining health.</strong> What choices are before them if they wish to keep moving, stay active and remain in close communion with nature and the great outdoors?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"It is hard to get old, have a parent who is getting old or serve those getting old, so read this book. Allen Ballard--who is 87, unable to drive, with one leg having its own ideas and missing now-gone friends--makes life better for all of us. He describes how to select the walker with Olympian assets, the adult trike that means freedom from the house and the route for the long morning and end-of-day rides. As only a retired professor can convey, he describes brakes, gears, crankshafts, seats and lights with more patience than the young bike-shop mechanic who has decided you clearly know nothing about bikes. Allen Ballard gives us a gift of happy years at the end."</p><p>--Anne Lusk, Ph.D., <em>Research Scientist, <br /> <strong>Harvard Chan School of Public Health</strong></em></p><br>
