ive just read about another trike being stolen and its brought something to my head.
today i was looking at an add in the back of the bike mag about a devise that you can connect a trike to a vehicle and tow it. it looks quick and simple. it fits to the yokes and your off.
i just wanted you to all be aware of this. :(

Yeah they're good, but to be honest I never thought that a thief would use one! They may well do! I chain my trikes back wheels as well as a disc lock..
Theres not much else I can do other than fit a spark plug into the petrol tank... ;) I have it garaged at home, still chain and disc lock... If they wan it that bad they'll take it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOOM! I wish lol :D

quite true.
thing is though. you wouldnt look sus towing something that looks proper,compaired to pushing it or tying it with rope. not that the pigs would be bothered anyway. bet if you tide the scum to the back of your trike they would notice. thing is now days, it pays to be a criminal. you get looked after by the old bill. if you get sent down you,l probably have a better time. and if your known by the old bill, they tend to ignore you cuz they know its likely to involve paperwork. :confused:
