Living Car Free - killed my car 12 years ago

I never used my car much and hated paying for it. so I finnaly gave it to the juck yard. got a trike and a bike that are to slow for most people but I'm not in hurry.

My worst hill is 16% and I can pedal 400 lbs up it using my Mt Tamer gears...slower than wolking. Then I did this forum talkin all the trouble Iv had with equipment....

So now it looks like the world needs my information after all, not that young speedy guys will like it. But hay I'm 60 years old and carry more cargo than any one I have met yet.

Great job! Are you talking about your bike or your trike here? I have trouble staying balanced on two wheels climbing at less than 4 mph, so my granny gears don't help out as much as I'd like. What's the slowest speed you can stay balanced on a two wheeler while climbing?

Any pictures available of you performing this feat?

Actually the world does need your input. There are a lot of people out there who thinking biking in the rain or carrying groceries by bike is a fantasy. You need to help set them straight.

16% on a trike? with cargo?! Wow, you must have the world's strongest drive train...I can hear the chain pins straining from here!

I have been known to tear chain link in half, but now my new chain is jumping in the lowest gear and I hope its not the rear sprockets are worn out.

I don't try to move too fast, it might kill me.

new photos soon.
