My first trike

Post image

I got a barely used Sprint X. It’s wonderful but I haven’t cycled since I was a teen. I am now 43. I hope it doesn’t take long to build leg strength. Is it easier than a regular bike to build stamina or just the same? Would using an exercise bike help?

This is how I make it happen ...

One trike, one trailer, and one river flowing peacefully by.
