Recumbant or trike

1 Attachment(s)

Here I am 64 years ago. Is it a recumbant or a trike?

Two wheels in front. That makes it a tadpole.

I see how to make it go but how did you get it to turn?

Feet are supposed to rest on swinging front axle. As you can see my legs were too short. Kept me on the "straight and narrow" :)

I keep this in my safe. I draw your attention to the shape and its teat. I never went hungry on my rides :)
