So many people!

Just been into town to pick up a prescription. OMG, where did all those people come from!

 

Overheard as I scooted past the crowds outside the cafes at the bottom of Boley Hill (taking advantage of the slope) "I hope he's got good brakes". Sooo tempted to yell back over my shoulder "No brakes whatsoever!"

And my pushing muscles are completely shot after a year of almost zero use. Time to start pushing up and down my street again.

It's definitely a shock!

So what is your emergency stop technique? I've been known to throw my power chair in reverse, certainly something I shouldn't be doing but reflexes are going to reflex.

I don't think I've ever actually had to do a true emergency stop in the chair, I've managed to steer around anyone trying to play lemming by stepping out in front of me. But in practice I'm always wearing gloves so it's going to be grab the pushrims and hope.
