: Get a trike (recumbent) then falling over is nearly impossible, fun too :)

: Bill H.

You into trikes too, Bill. :D
The impossibility of falling over only works well at low speeds. Or stopped (paused). At higher speeds, a "balance brace" (body lean) works a treat.

Mike, I'd second the trike idea but keep the bike too. What is difficult to do with one is easier with the other.

Trikes, bikes and kayaks. Personal craft that are the funnest.
