Human-Powered Commute Week?

[cjsmith]

A recent post by renaissancedan reminded me that Bike to Work Week is coming up.

Naturally, since bicycling and walking are both Right Out for me, I thought of driving riding taking the wheelchair to work. I certainly won't be ready to do that by Monday -- I can't even go around the building once I'm here! But it's an intriguing goal. I need goals. It's been way too long since I've had a physical goal.

Wheelie to work. With some thought I could set a timeline for it. Mid- to late June might be achievable.

How long is your commute? By the time you can do that, I'm sure you could beat me arm-wrestling. Of course, given my arms, you might be able to do that now. ;-)

(And what do I do for next week if I work from home? Get on the bike and go around the block? It'll be moot anyway as I'll be travelling to the east coast.)

I learned how to drive a wheelchair Sunday in the very crowded Museum of Modern Art bookstore. It was great fun, but my shoulders are still aching.
