Riding Trikes on the Road
Hi, all -
Been looking at the various trikes. In principal I like the trike idea a lot - the stability, not falling over at low speeds, the low stance, less wind resistence, etc., etc.
But, I'm concerned about riding something like this on the road. They have a much wider stance than a regular bike, yes? It seems like you'd have to drop a wheel off the road to avoid intruding into the traffic. And they're significanly lower which suggests visibility problems, both for the rider and the surrounding traffic.
Is anyone out there doing any serious road riding/commuting on a trike? In an urban area? Please share your thoughts and experiences.
Much appreciated,
