Why Rick Rides a Catrike Expedition

-

In 2019 I passed out on my bike. I got a concussion, 5 broken ribs, punctured lung, dislocated shoulder, and a fractured hip. So I didn't want to stop riding, so after I recovered I went to Utah trikes and got a good deal on an expedition. I've loved every mile. Then in 2024 I was at the gym and my heart stopped when I was on the rowing machine. So I died at the gym. But lucky me a nurse was working out near me. Hi saw me pass out and started CPR. Someone call 911 , they came, and it took about 20 minutes for me to breathe on my own. I spent a week in the hospital, and 3weeks in a nursing facility. I was told the only reason I'm alive today was because a nurse was right there next to me. It made the chanel 13 news. So thought my cycling days were numbered, but later after recovery my cardio Dr. said my fitness level is what kept me going. So cycling for me stated in 1968 and been riding every year since. So cycling went from 2 wheels to 3 wheels so I'm glad there was a Catrike dealership near me to set me up with a new ride. My heart is only 40% now. But my Dr. said keep on existing as before. So I'm at the gym 5 to 6 day's rowing 8 to 10,000 meters a day 5 to 6 days per week. So being active my whole life has been good. For my heart thing you can Google "Ejection Fraction" and you will see I'm doing well with 40%. It has come up from 34%. So I'm not planning on selling my trike anytime soon. Just putting Pedal assist this fall. See you then.
