I used to have a handcycle. I loved the freedom of getting out, and riding for exercise; but it wasn't always easy for me to transport in and out of it. I know a lot of people who have different types of handcycles, such as those that can be attached right to your wheelchair, and the 3-wheeled handcycles, but even all of those can be a challenge to transport by yourself. I find that being in a wheelchair can be exercise all in itself. There are times when I just don't want to transfer out of my wheelchair for exercise or spend a lot of money for a device that is hard for me to use independently. My independence is important to me and so is my health!
