| Christy rides a KHS aluminum frame 8-speed for upright riding with maximum versatility and minimum weight |
I ran into (okay stalked is a better term) Christy on her way to a meeting in the Sears
Tower. Don't let the sun deceive you, it was a nippy 29˚. I'm so glad I did, because
she is such an inspiration. Read her story below:
After I herniated two cervical discs in summer 2010 my physical therapist basically said
'Get a bike that puts your body upright, or never bike again.' Suffice it to say, I bought a
new bike. It was a tough transition, because I go a whole lot slower now than on my old
Bianchi hybrid, but I've come to appreciate the slow ride and the improvement in my
symptoms. For that I have to thank my KHS Cidi 8-speed, plus the guys at Boulevard
Bikes who helped me to find exactly the right model for my riding style and recent
physical challenges.
Thanks for sharing Christy!
