For Some, Cycling Eases Parkinson’s Symptoms - NYTimes.com

My father-in-law has had Parkinson's symptoms for 6-7 years now. He's really remarkable in that his walking and balance is a bit iffy at times, yet he takes ballroom dance classes 5 times a week and moves so much more stronger and smoothly when dancing. It's really odd.

I'll definitely have to pick up a tricycle for him to use out on our property if this pans out in further study.
