SHARE THEIR BEST “HACKS”
Sylvia Longmire Hack 2: thick front tires
Sylvia’s visited 57 countries so far, 48 as a wheelchair user and 34 by herself.
Because Europe and other places have
bumpy sidewalks and streets, she’s kitted her power wheelchair with thick front
tires.
“Many power chairs have small front wheels that get stuck or bump you to death.
The front wheels are big on mine,” she said.
“Plus, my chair easily comes apart in three sections so that it can be stored in the trunk of a taxi.
Some places have great accessible public
transit, but others do not, and you need to take a standard cab.”
