I used to worry that I was pushing Gareth into this bike, that I was projecting too much of my own desire for us to ride together onto him. Let me just say that I no longer harbor such reservations.

Gareth loved his bike. Absolutely adored it. While fitting him for the pedals, we put his feet on both and held them in place while he turned the crank all on his own. It was just too perfect.

Jorene was on hand to provide a pedal restraint solution and to look at what we could do regarding torso restraints. Everything looks doable.

We also took the rack home tonight. Oh man, that thing is a beast. Getting it up and down the basement steps is going to be nightmarish but oh so worth it.

The bike will be finished up by late next week. After that, they’ll get my fitting done (seat and handle adjustments). Then it’s ours.
