Thanks for saying that for meOriginally Posted by alpinerabbit
Those Trikkes, though, look like they would be a good workout and very fun. Someone should make the tourons, umm, I mean tourists use those instead (Did I say that???).

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

I really don't use my arms much on my Trikke, it's far more my butt and thighs.
You shift your weight as you lean/turn the front wheel. Feels like skating. There are people who commute on theirs, and you can ride them uphill (but it takes serious work).
I'd rather commute on my bike. The Trikke is just for fun at our house. We play with it in the school parking lot and playground."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson
