Hi,
You have to come back with one now, we won't be able to put up with all the tension, You could soon be at Elvo... Don't Dither, Be Brave, if the boss has said you can have one, go for it.
Good Luck.

I just noticed that the chain on my trike had a twist in it. It wasnt immediately obvious in the all the gears. This hasnt prevented me from flying around like a hooligan juumping off kerbs and hitting some fool's dog who happend to want to chew my feet at 25mph. Trikes are usefull against dogs in that they target the moving feet but foget that the wheels are bearing down on them. Anyway the dog yelped but was unhurt.

OK Windmiller, at least you found the problem, you should be fine with it now, try and make sure you end up in the right gear for setting off.

3tyretrackterry,
Well done that man, now you can get down to some serious pleasure over the Long Hot Summer ahead.
Prepare to get face ache with all the grinning you are going to go through.
Looks like a mass meeting at Elvo is in the pipeline.

Enjoy.

Cullin should that be Long Not Summer? It was last year!

I notice that my trike seems to accelerate faster than a df, I wonder how much of that is an illusion. never came across another bike yet in order to put that to the test. So far the power grips work very well. The flak I recieved initially from the people at work is dying down now. Although I don't intend to use the trike on a regualr basis for the commute. The run is too dangerous with no feasible alternative route. As for summer...hmmm... at least the days are longer.

3tyretrackterry just in case you dont already know, the ICE website has several reviews of the explorer in its reference section. it looks closely related to my T model.

For dogs?

I'm off for a trial session at D.Tek on Saturday so would be very interested in knowing much the Trice cost you, if you dont mind saying. Kevin gave me loads of tips over the phone about have several trial sessions (1 trying 10-15 bikes and then 1 or 2 trying 3-5 bikes) but said very little about prices other than to say that a 2nd hand bent bike would be £450-850 but nothing about trikes.
