My wife is recovering from an accident and would very much like to
ride her bike again.  The problem is she has limited power and poor
balance.  It is possible that one day she could learn to ride the
bike again, but our summer is short and we would like to get out
and enjoy it.  I have searched magazines, books, and our local bike
shops for ideas to help her, and one idea that I've found is
converting her ten speed Schwinn to three wheeler.  In a book
published in 1980, "The All New Complete Book of Bicycling", by
Eugene Sloane he shows such a conversion and says that kits are
available.

I haven't been able to locate any mention of these kits anywhere
but this book.  Does anyone out there know of anything like this?
Please, I'm looking for details, and thanks!

Joe
