WELCOME!!!

cardodger,

WELCOME to the group. (we're small but "a FUN bunch".)

in my case, i'm in the "gathering stage" of preparing to build a VW-based trike, as i cannot balance a 2-wheeler any more, due to "middle ear problems".
(my sum total of trike experience was buying/riding an ex-Austin PD, H-D servi-car in college LONG ago.- that UGLY monster was really effective at "picking up" UT coeds.)

several people here (Salamander, for ONE) are FAR more knowledgeable than i am & i'm sure will happily help with questions.

PLEASE share your pictures of your trike(s) (if any), experiences of building/customizing trikes & life on the road.

nearly anything goes, here.

yours, Otter

Leon,

we're PLEASED that you're here AND do post the pix.

also, tell us about your "adventures in building" your new trike.
(i, for one, would be interested.)

the one i'm "gathering up pieces for" will be based on a wrecked VW, with a "plain vanilla" 1600 engine, as it runs fine & most of all was CHEAP.
(i'm not exactly "running over with money" on my pension, especially given the fact that i'm about to build a 32x72 foot HOUSEboat to retire to within a year.)

yours, Otter
