Another 20" wheeled e-trike

[voyager]

Hi Folks

Bit more done between other jobs ( DIY , gardening and a few car repairs ) to the marengo , seat mesh replaced , seat frame sprayed and a 180 mm rotor added on the rear .

Now I need to get fit again , my plantar fasciitis is still causing me walking problems but I can cycle a reasonable distance.

a quick addition of a temporary flag pole , made from an extending dremel mount and a piece of piano wire , awaiting a union flag and a practice golf ball for the top

Hi folks

retighten the webbing and solved a little problem , the trike would jump on the small sprocket , Then finally found the problem, A piece of broken magnet had become attracted to the inside of the 11t sprocket , After a few attempts to remove this lump ( it did not want to become unattached it was too attracted) finally came off and a test ride prove all was okay again.

a year on and a few more little modifications , a replacement rear rack from scratch as the original failed from fatigue. More rides this year to try and get fit but this old age lark is not helping . Still a nice early evening ride out to Shoreham Beach tonight might

negate the sugar input today .
The views are spoilt by the wind farm on the horizon .

You've gotta get power from somewhere, I'd give the windfarm a wave.

Very professional looking trike there. I like the light mounts high up - very originaal idea, don't think I've seen that before.

John the Sandman was the first to fit lamps in that position , it has its advantages as you don't need to move to switch them on or check they are still working. . The mtb bar extensions work well as lamp mounts . They can also be used for a go-pro .

More lunchtime rides , todays lunchtime ride was extended to take in Shoreham airport and the 11th century church at Kingston Bucci .

hoping to get close to my annual target if I carry on at this rate.

Hi Neil
It's strange really , you don't notice the nice scenery around where you live until its pointed out to you , you yearn for other places to go and see , there are many nice places to go and photograph a trike by but still I want to travel to pastures new rather than taking in the views .
Point taken and noted for later
