Here's my trike. Some of you by now know I roll primarily in my motorized bike cause I need to go far and I'm not physically able to do the long haul otherwise.Photo0251.jpg
Here's some pics of my utility. The store is about 3 miles away and to me that's pretty far. I know. I know.
The gearing is a paultry 36/20 which makes for incredibly easy pedaling but if I keep a pace going I can get along at about 5 or 6 mph.
Anyway,it's a workout and I plan on using this often. Here's the bike loaded up with some groceries.

Riding a trike like this is funny for you have to take away all instincts to balance the bike. At first it feels like it wants to pull to the right but then you realize it's YOU trying to balance something that won't let you. So just steer and trust that you won't fall off.
On hilly parts it's actually easier and more fun to stand on the storage box and push off with your foot when you're climbing a hill.
