    OOOHHHHH! I want a trike really bad! I found on one the internet and DH "forbade" me to buy it. He should know better

    PS. Love the parking sign in the pic

    And towing a trike with a trike--that's hilarious!

    Yeah, especially considering how the trike will pay for itself in gas, maintenance, parking, and insurance costs saved by not driving as much

    I got a kick out of that sign too Funny how they have a parking space for low-emission vehicles, but no bike rack? BTW, nobody pays attention to that sign anyway. I see regular cars parked there all the time.

    The towing was fun until I got home and discovered that I had worn all the paint off the part of the Worksman's front fork where it contacted the basket on the trike I was riding. A visit to the LBS the next day and a quick application of touch-up paint by me fixed that problem. They know I work on my own bikes so they just handed me the paint bottle and let me take it home with me. I did the touch-up job and returned it to them on the red Torker trike so I could let the paint dry on the Worksman.

    Forgot to mention that I always bring my reuseable grocery bags when shopping so I don't have to use the plastic bags from the store. Some stores give you a 5 cent credit for every bag you bring that they fill up.
