Is that yours, by any chance? If so, what make is it? Is it an ICE or something else? I do think trikes look better, like yours and FiveWheels', without mudguards, although they are useful for road riding in Edinburgh. Plus suspension, of course. Either way, it looks very fast and fun. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1982#post-20916 Sun, 09 Jan 2011 01:39:48 +0000 Arellcat 20916@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>Let's have a trike love-in!</em></p> <p>Well there's this old thing, hiding in a corner of the city:</p> <p><img src="http://i1038.photobucket.com/albums/a470/BeckyT_bike/Miscellany/oldspeedy2-1.jpg"> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1982#post-20913 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 23:34:26 +0000 alanr 20913@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>What a great posting! And I love you trike! Of course, in our fair city, you'd have to be *very* careful to avoid those naughty potholes - I ought to know. I have an ICE Sprint FS2 trike and it's truly awesome, but as I'm sitting only 6" above the road, even with full suspension, you really feel them! I do have a two-wheeled bike, but I've kind of stopped using it, now I have a trike - it's just faster and more comfortable. Tell you what, let's have a trike love-in! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1982#post-20794 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 18:42:15 +0000 TwoWheels 20794@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Ha! Best picture of a trailer I ever posted! Sorry about that, I'm glad Min fixed it up.</p> <p>I never realized when I registered that the name TwoWheels would someday become superannuated. </p> <p>One of these days, that trike will be riding the lovely potholed, tram-tracked roads of Your Fair City. I just have to figure out how to convince the airline that it is a necessary Mobility Aid. That, and come up with the cost of a ticket. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1982#post-20765 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 15:58:41 +0000 ruggtomcat 20765@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@Min Thanks! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1982#post-20728 Thu, 06 Jan 2011 12:12:53 +0000 Arellcat 20728@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The whole controversy is preposterous.

And while I may not be able to sate my desire to reside in decadent luxury in Dunedin, as is my wont, I have managed to secure an ICE trike from not-so-nearby Cornwall. </p> <p>I know most of you don't ride recumbent bikes, no less trikes, but this vehicle is a piece of British engineering that has no peer. Here's my new steed at work:</p> <p><img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14358620/trike_work.jpg"> </p>
