Yo Cosmo, technically we could invoke proof ( by practical means)of you not really needing your legs.

The increase circulation to other regions would be beneficial.

In the meantime the office beckons, best get a wheelchair;

He'd save a lot more weight if he had his head removed! and you only need one arm to steer, and one leg to hop, lots of room for 'improvement' then!

Look Mark, leave this to the experts, we'll decide which bits you can do without and sort it all for you.

How's about your brain in a jam jar? You could take it out on special occasions! :biggrin:

Bygumm Cosmo,

How about lightning conductor ? Tha' could be hoisted up to high buildings
and wave tha' crutch at t'heavens.
Thus protecting life and property.
If tha' stands on my roof can tha' repoint my chimney?

i am having pv solar panels fitted on the roof in two weeks, all that lovely feed in tariff money.
yes it was a bit Frankenstein today as i was riding along on top of the hills, on a chunk of metal, thinking i wonder how insulating are my tyres? i decided to cut the ride short and go back down into the valley.
experts? er ok, i will believe you, are you sure my head is not essential? how will i ask for tea? and eat my cheese banana honey and peanut butter sandwiches?

Tha' must leave a bit of Comso,

We have at our expense ,Marc from the Chatsworth avilable at York.
He has been living for many years without a brain
and has several small animals without heads.
These he keeps in matchboxes.

he keeps trying to show me his camel in a matchbox but i thought it was a euphemism and keep refusing, they have some very odd customs out in the darker parts of the bush where the missionaries have not got to yet, dog eating ect.

Think on Cosmo,
a dog for Christmas means a leg each.

I do some voluntary work and around the ward today,
there was much hilarity when I mentioned your problems.

Ted, who has a Coca Cola addition
thinks you should be interned (or was it interred?) and Jimmy, who bit off his little finger
thinks you should be on the ward full time.

I did show them pictures,apparently
you are identical to Johathan Hailstone ( sectioned). Disappeared
from the Isle of Wight ferry
, pronounced limp.
Exposed sir!!

wow do you think i can make one with crutches instead of handlebars? with this no one will notice my limp!

the recovery is progressing slowly, only done 60 miles over the last two days, with the weather being bad, so incense, chanting and ritual sacrifice --"vegetarian stile, i torment and terrify fruit before slicing it up and eating it, while dressed in a loin cloth with a carved turnip strapped to my head, you should see the juice :blink:"-- are now being employed as you know, i have a gap so my leg is only partially attached to me.

the hand bike gets the old ticker going i clime the hill from my house with it and have to stop for a rest twice :ohmy: so it might be a long time before you see it on a trike meet ride, unless i hitch it up to the back of another trike, i await the offers to come rushing in.

the device has had a bit of a rethink making it even simpler and lighter, as i know trike riders tend to be keen on that kind of thing as it allows them to carry more fig biscuits.

If tha ' thinks t'treadmill bike is the future, tha's plenty room on t'ward.

One way of making your handcycle lighter is to drill hundreds of wholes in it.

Removing t'legs would also decrease weight.
Tha' could leave them at home and use them to climb t'stairs.

Being a foreigner, I have used many dictionaries in an attempt to understand this thread and I think I am getting there [but where is 'there' ... ?].

I have enjoyed the input of 'Job's friends' and have laughed out loud

at some of the (more understandable) assistance offered.

Surely, removing the wheels would make the handcycle even lighter ???

Would the handcycle be as easy to get onto a bus as a Treadmill bike ?

What would the driver of said bus say ?
