Happy happy pleased... My Trike has had a lot of major works; oil leaks, clutch, head, frame work and more "just teething troubles" I hear others say.

 

The thing I'm looking forward to is getting out for a ride this weekend, up to see my Cousin Tracey in Kingscliff.

  Tracy and my auntie Val came down for a visit and I took Tracey out for a ride "she loved it" I heard her say. Auntie Val took some pics and sent then to my mum and dad, my dad's a bike rider as well, but I think he's got a scooter now in his 70's he started riding bikes in the 1940's.  I was SMSed by him,  saying he likes the trike and mum does too! I never thought I hear those words after all bikes had put her through

 

I think it makes them  happy to see three wheels under my after seeing me fall from two a few times over the years... I had my first bike in 1973 and racing them for a year and by 1976 I'd come off a lot by then when on the way to work I  was a total bad smashed up a young bloke in a really bad way but by 1979 I was out of hospital following a total of 22 months hospital and Rehab because I had a serious Head Injury and in a coma for almost 6 weeks, I could not talk, walk, communicate or do hardly anything without supervision after all attempts to relocate me failed and released by work. Next   I brought another bike, then another followed by a few more, I love them even after having hurt myself so server as I had I guess it was fate I'd  end up on a trike... It's great no falling off, well yet.  

 

It is not like riding a bike when it comes to handling because you must steer a trike around corners and bends where on a bike you lean around corners... more about that later.
