That Sucks mate, I see on your profile the reason you don't work, but is there not anything you can do to break up the Boredom?
I have a Disability in that my Right arm is Kaput, there are other guys on here far worse than me, but to my Knowledge we all ride bikes/trikes, is there any way you could ride again(if you wanted to of course) to relieve the Boredom?
Chin up mate!

Well although I've "officially" retired
I still find myself with plenty to do
I consider myself very fortunate, to still have most of my faculties
So a day off is a bit of a novelty
But getting my toys out and playing with bikes
Isn't really "work" to me
Then there are all the other things to occupy my mind and time
I'm sure there's something that you can do, to "while away" the hours Simon
After all it doesn't "have" to be constructive or productive
As long as it keeps you busy and not bored
MY PROBLEM WITH RIDING EVEN A TRIKE IS THAT OUR WONDERFUL BOYS IN BLUE HAVE TAKEN MY LICENCE OFF ME. Sorry caps off ! As I have just demonstrated my eyes r a real problem. So I don't think I've got a hope in L's chance of getting it back !
So it's your eyes that are the Problem, That is my worst Nightmare!
Had it been a Manual Disability there is not much to stop you getting on the road, I see that you are going to watch the BSB's, so I guess your eyes are good over longer distance, but you can see a PC as well?
I was impressed with the Guy with 10% vision that won a race at the Paralympics the other day, how the hell did he do that!

I know you can't ride yourself now and would love the chance to go pilly........why don't you sort a rideout, I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who would be happy to give you a pilly!!
This would get you out and help you make new friends x

"its your eyes that are the Problem"
Yeah, worst luck. As you say, theres not a lot else that would stop me from riding a nice triked ZXR !
"so I guess your eyes are good over longer distance, but you can see a PC as well?
All I can say is, do not try to understand it !
I do now wear glasses. Although I have 1 eye lens frosted out, a I have now also got double vision. Which is all OK for riding slowly but :- I also have, what must be the weiredest disability going, my eyes just close involuntry about every minuite. I then struggle t re-open them 4 a further coupkle of seconds. This IS y I have lost my licence, understandablr really . It is also y I find it hard going to keep up in the chat room .
"how the hell did he do that!"
The human body has FAAAAR more capeabilities than most us ever use, or should that b need 2 use !

You are correct. The only thing is, as someone KINDLY pointed out 2 me on another site, is that it can be a bit of a responsability ! WHAT a complete and utter tosser, it is only the same as taking any1 ! on the back.
