Biking. When I was undergoing cancer treatment I bought an e-bike with 5 levels of pedal assist: none, 10%, 25%. 50% and full. It was my “emergency plan” if I got hit with a bout of fatigue and eased the worry that if I rode too far I’d be too tired to bike home. I normally ride 20-30 miles so while in treatment I would do 10 miles with no assist, then switch to 10%. Only needed higher assist a couple times.

Good for you! What a great example. I'm considering an Alinker. Walking is no longer easy for me. The Alinker looks like fun.

What model e-bike do you have? I've considered one, but I'm now only 4' 11" tall and not sure there is one with seat that adjusts to get my feet close enough to the pedals. No stores in my area have them in stock.
