You are correct Shahidul, 8 miles per hour is not that fast, my invacare Arrow is supposed to go about 7 to 71/2 miles per hour and I have had it 61/2 years now. As with ANY man made or mechanical device, something can break or go wrong, but the same goes for cars-bikes or anything. Even walking or running has a risk. Dan H.

But I know you are right, anything might happen even to experienced user anytime. I would possibly be happy with 12km /hr. Sometimes there are negligible traffic. At that time I have an urge to run faster. I heard about persons possibly in this list, who modified their chairs themselves to run faster. We have one gentleman from S.Africa who manufactures power chair. Name is Martin Brown. So I am inspired. But, I shall be careful. Hello Mark, Enjoyed your story. I saw Tom crashing and breaking into walls like that in "Tom & Jerry" cartoon (lol). Please take care :-) Alam On 6/16/08, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Alam, It is always a pleasure to hear from you regarding your experiences.... and successes. I wish you more. I also understand your need for speed, but caution, to everything there are natural limits and un natural conditions to those natural limits. It would sadden us to read that you injuried yourself, racing at faster speeds. Keep in touch and please continue to post as there are so many new people who might be inspired by your progress. Best Wishes W
