Well, I broke my back and have done 4 marathons, an Ironman, and countless century rides. Some could say that I should't get a dime in disability.
However, I will point out that prior to this, I did none. In fact, I picked up triathlon because I could no longer play soccer, basketball, or lift weights. I can make a long list of what I can't do because of the back. Apparently, so can you because of the knee. It's all relative.
My baby is a custom Guru Trilite. I also have a Novara Road bike that sits on the trainer.

I disagree with you bro on limiting it to combat vets and retirees. If you were injured on AD, then that is service connected.
I don't really understand how it is that they opened it up as free health care to anybody that was a vet. First I've heard of someone actually paying a co-pay. I could be wrong.
