recommendation wanted electric trike for someone with ALS

[MitchJi]

Hi,

I have ALS and I need something to get from my car to a swimming pool

I have the symptoms of ALS. I need to be able to use a pool therapeutically 3-6 days per week. Meir pointed out that I walked backwards in your pool as well as I did in his office six years ago. He thinks that within three months of using a pool that I can get back to where I was six years ago.


I need to buy a kick scooter to get from the road to a swimming pool. I’m planning to try this on a unpowered kick scooter. If that isn’t safe my next plan is to try an electric kick scooter.

Ones absolute requirement is hand brake(s) , and excellent throttle control The perfect solution would be a manual kick scooter with hand brakes and big soft tires that could easily be converted to electric if necessary.

I bought a Mongoose EXpo for $53.

My wife thinks my balance isn’t good enough to ride it.

I think that I might not be strong enough to push it, in that case I’m planning to buy an electric scooter.

My wife thinks I should use one of these:

I’ll know on Monday when the mongoose arrives.

My wife is correct. I’m too weak, to ride a push scooter!

Now I’m planning to buy an electric trike. I’m hoping that someone here will be able to recommend a good alternative. An very important factor is excellent low speed throttle control.

Thanks!
