Back Home. |
Hi
I spent some time last night and this morning finishing the trike to a rideable state and spent quite a bit of effort fettling the brakes and gears, as well as making side-covers and a lid for the tailbox, and fitting handgrips and a bell. And it all came out well. My first trip out on the trike was a shopping trip, and the worst problem I had with the trike was running over dog excrement on the pavement on the way home! The steering was a bit out of centre, which I've fixed, but otherwise no real issues. Still getting used to it a bit though, and I want to make 2 more sets of panels for the tailbox, 1 in coreflute and 1 in plywood: I bought in supplies for them today as well and will add some taillights as well.
All for now, Regards
Steve Nurse
