Drift trikes

You're going to have to explain to me.

How anyone can ride so low to the floor,out of motorists view and feel safe i don't know.

It's a thrill ride, part of the reason for doing it is precisely because it isn't safe. It's also a counterculture, sticking two fingers up at the establishment conformists who tell them to be safe.

Oh, right.

It's only like skate boarding. They look more in control than a cyclist trying to cut the lines on bends when they don't know how. Pretty pointless with a full face when it's your body that will get broken to bits...

Not recommended for 56 year olds with a history of breaking bones then?

Not recommended for a 46 year old either, with a bad luck history involving motor vehicles !

I dunno, what's the worst that could happen?

Oh nothing much. Just a few broken bones.
