Go get yourself a Ruckus or similar hooligan to scoot around town on.  One-handed operation wouldn't be an issue and because of the size, arm extension mightn't even be necessary if you wanted to use both.

My wife would go BONKERS if I did that!!! :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: 

I will live to RIDE again...but I just have to take it easy for the next few months....However, there IS a little motorcycle or scooter in my Geezer-future! :thumb: :cool:

I hope you heal fast JJ!  It looks painful!

I will use this as an excuse the next time I am asked to help someone move.  :)

Designed by an architect who didn’t like the landscape, and thought he could do better than whoever or whatever created it in the first place.
I prefer the original concept.

JJ, ouch!  I can relate as I am still recovering from shoulder surgery this past Jan.31st.  My advice- don't rush it.  Take your time and let your body heal.  Do as your doctor's and physical therapist recommend which will speed your recovery time.  Good luck
