Two years ago, I had a severe dizzy spell while riding my Cannondale Super V and my Cardiologist and family Doctor said not to ride anymore. In two years of not riding I put on 50# 's. Last winter I started pedaling my recumbent stationary bike and at my physical I said that I was ready to start riding again and was told no way, they didn’t want me to come in with a broken hip (I’m 82). That made sense but I wasn’t ready to quit riding. Several years ago, I had purchased a recumbent trike, but hated getting onto it and getting back up. The Fat Tad sets higher and I can get on and off with no problem. I can’t get any speed even though I exchanged the knobby tires for street tires, but I am primarily concerned about exercise, not speed. I get many comments from other riders on how much they like my bike
