Well I finally bit the bullet and allthough I am feeling crap I took the new trike out for a little pootle, and boy do I feel better, WOW totaly different from my last trike.
The front end is a lot heavier so I think I am going to have to try and get my arms stronger because they are aching like hell at the moment Ha! Ha!
Also got to try and get used to having the gears down by my side, but I'll get there.
I stopped to get some fuel in Aberystwyth, went into pay and when I came out I had 4 car drivers around the trike looking at it.
I took a couple of photo's but they have not come out very well so I will have to take some more.
I bought it from Marc & Nel at UKtriker, they are great people to deal with.

Mate I have been sitting here felling sorry for myself, and taking all kinds of medication, but that ride on the trike has done me more good than all the bloody tablets, it's given me a hell of a lift :D

OK, it's the Yorkshire Trikers site but they get messages from all over the UK and even some people from Oz used to post.

Good for you Kingo. I hate the medication and avoid it whenever I can as well.

It does you really good to get out and put some miles on the clock. Hope you feel better soon mate. Take care of yourself.
