I had gotten pulled over once for no front number plate ( it was on my dash due to a freshly painted body kit) The officer was nice and told me get it on there as soon as I could. I was putting my papers back and for some dumb reason I pushed the clutch in and rolled back into his cruiser, I yelled out the window "Hey man! watch the paint" before I realized it was me that had rolled into him.
Not my proudest moment.
Wow Dave you're lucky he didn't lock you up just for that!

Converting your wheelchair into a wheel bike (pedal with your legs to propel the bike) OR of course (and probably more suited to this site)... strap your feet in and get loads of exercise in those leg muscles as you propel yourself with your arms.
I was impressed.
It is pretty cool. I suppose for most of us we'd just be using it for range of motion. I know I for 1 doubt I'd be using it like the guy in grocery store/market but it is pretty cool.

Nothing much . . . . . just fell out of my chair.
Then, for the first time ever, got back up unassisted. Of course I had to stick a couple cushions under my butt to raise me up a bit. Next I hoisted myself to a mid point bench. And lastly, I got back to the damn chair.

Now I could use a nap.
Are you kidding floor to chair transfers aren't what I'd call easy even for paras.....use all the cushions & benches ya like buddy.......and happy napping even if this is a bit late.
