I just finished a motorized long wheel base recumbent. I am surprised how much I like it and the comfort is more than I would have thought. So much so that it has me thinking about a recumbent trike.
I see some of your trikes and they are interesting, in fact they have been of interest for some time.
I would like to motorize one but here is what has stoped me: TRAFFIC! and room to ride on the side of the road. How does it workout for you. Some of you must ride in high traffic areas like Fresno, California where I live. Some times I feel I'm in the way even with a standard cruiser or mountian bike. I know by law we are suppose to have our share of the road, but those cars and trucks look pretty big from a bicycle. Law or no law, I'm going to come out the looser If I try challenging them, me thinks. Like most of you, I have had some rude and dangerous things happen to me on a standard bike, but a trike????. Maybe you are just brave souls.
Never the the less, I would like to learn how and what you do. If you would, also add how the traffic treats you in some of those tight areas.
Thanks
Will
