Bravo! Good for you. TM took golf out of my life, but I would like to go out & play 9 - riding on a cart of course. If you want to see someone who's nuts, it will be me - out there, walking with a cane in one hand & a 7 iron in the other (?)

I rode a bicycle for 3 to 4 minutes yesterday. Wow! It was a goal I set for myself and I was determined to do it. Bike riding was one of the enjoyments TM took from me. Sunday was the 3 yr anniversary of my last bike ride and I know my balance problems are in my torso and legs, not in my brain. I borrowed a small bike that allowed my feet to firmly touch the ground when sitting on the seat. I took a deep breath and started riding toward 4 people who thought I was totally nuts. I rode right past them with my head held high and a grin on my face. I felt like I was flying! I quit as soon as my muscles started cramping, but who knows what the future holds. I'm still soaring from that short ride. (I still use a cane.) Patti - Michigan
