Not another part out of commission

[cjsmith]

Wrist tendons still unhappy from Saturday. Improving, but noticeably "fragile" still. Wheelchairs are dangerous, people.

The last thing I need is (semi-)permanent trouble with my arms... as a computer programmer or as someone whose feet aren't healthy.

Therefore, caution! I can do that.

I figure I'll get to the point where I haven't felt pain from normal activities for a week, and then I can get back on the water rower.

The Rascal chairs come in a couple of sizes of chairs and weights... the smallest of them run around quite nicely and put no strain whatsoever on your wrists in "pushing wheels" ... a rack can be gotten to carry it around on your car if you don't have an SUV or van to roll it into. The Rascal people come to your home with a free demo of a couple of models, they take a "history of interest" first to determine what might best suit you and your situation... definitely worth checking out. Good luck.

Thanks! I checked out the web site when you mentioned the brand, and I can see they have a variety -- even some "rugged for outdoors" stuff.

There are days when I just want to custom design something along these lines. Interchangeable tires/axles for indoor versus out, smaller width and length than anything currently on the market, carbon fiber construction for strength and light weight, a wide range of ways to carry stuff... :)
