Does anyone here cycle, that is disabled? I mean being unable to support yourself with employment.

I have two neurological conditions, and cycling is a BIG help on my quality of life - thanks to conditioning (being inactive is a very bad idea in my case), transportation, and mental satisfaction. I don't have very good endurance or power but good enough to get around and enjoy it sometimes.

Old post,but I just found this thead...THANK YOU! This is eXACTLY the issue tha I deal with the most when I'm feeling up to riding. People don't undertand that "disability" doesn't always mean "disfigurement"...even (especially?) "family". =/
