Hi everyone,

my partner and I believe we have found the perfect handbike for him and we hope to do a mini marathon  together with me running and him using the handbike - it should be great fun as it means we can do sports together.

Have any of you used a handbike - I saw that you can add on a "tetraplegic" pack to the bike which aids the tetraplegic user to maintain control at all times.

Interested to hear what you may have to say about using a handbike which seems to me a really fantastic invention.

Hope everyone is doing well out there. Glad to say that we are doing great at the moment!

I have used a hand bike but I am not a tetra I am a para. They are weird at first but a bit like the type of cycle that Billy Connolly uses when I see him zipping around the area near to his Scottish castle.
