Yesterday I visited some gardens with a friend. Of course, I brought my scooter as I can no longer walk long distances. There are lots of hills and inclines at this park. In the past, my scooter has had no issue with going uphill, but with my recent weight gain... not so much. As it turns out, my scooter will no longer go up any degree of incline with me riding. The poor thing either stalls out or starts rolling backward! This happened multiple times throughout the day. Luckily I had a strong, kind friend with me!! They got quite the workout pushing me on the scooter up the hill. So many people were around and witnessed the entire spectacle.
