I received my Etrike package and am "on the road" again. I am diagnosed with Spinocerebellar Ataxia which in short is a rare progressive neurological disease that diminishes my fine motor control, i.e. I have reached the point that I cannot, with any confidence, stop, land my feet and stay upright. Took me 2 1/2 nights after work to install and a few more of tweaking. Wifey is very happy to have her riding companion back as she rides as well. Have to be short as I am at work. Thanks to all on this thread (I read it completely, a couple of times) for all the advise they offered.
