| I think all the PAYG bikes eg the Lime/Uber ebike and the Mobike are very heavy presumably to make them more resilient to misuse. I remember that Mobikes have solid tyres. A friend living elsewhere bought a secondhand ebike so it did not cost him as much. LBE has a scheme where you can trial them too. Take a look at this website. Even if you don't use them you may be able to find out some more information from them. https://www.peddlemywheels.com/try-before-you-bike You can request a Cyclehoop bikehangar to share in your street - but if space is such a premium that may be difficult. You then rent a space in it for your bike. With rationing and restrictions in the NHS there are supplements which were once available on prescription but which are no longer. There is more to the loss of these than just the cost saving to the NHS. We have also lost the expertise of medical personnel who we trusted to help us negotiate getting older. We are now bombarded with all sorts of medical remedies and we have to find out what works and works for us. There was an interesting thread about arthritis in hands on the CW4.com website. There were a lot of votes for Cod Liver Oil something that my grandparents would have used amongst other things. I know that when my joints have felt rather crunchy I found this worked too but it is a very subjective thing. You also have to be careful that with all the mixes of supplements out there that you are doubling up and taking too much of something by mistake. |
