    This morning as I was waiting at the lights on Hope Park Terrace to head west onto Melville Drive an upright trike sauntered across northwards to Buccleuch Street, and strapped on the back was a rear facing kiddies seat.

    I shuffled across the ASL and on green headed in that direction instead of my usual route, but the chase was in vain as I got caught by a couple of reds and they presumably turned off somewhere. Was planning on getting a photie (and asking permission of course given many people's fears surrounding kids these days).

    Anyone else seen them before? Considering staking out the junction tomorrow morning...

    Did it have two seats facing backwards? If not there are two very similar vehicles triking around there.

    It possibly did, there was only one kid aboard (I think) so I didn't really notice...

    I have seen the trike with two seats a few times at Gilmore Place.

    Used to see these down south occasionally. There's always a bunch on ebay.

    I've spotted the thing I think you're referring to before heading up causewayside towards the meadows before, just passing the entrace to TBS. Had 2 kiddies strapped into the back seat and Mum was pedalling

    maybe... they can be very red tape like
    "what did you break? how did you break it? who was there? were your fingers wet? why were they wet? why hadn't you dried them? why was the dryer broken... oh..."
    for those of you with less sarcasm I meant CSI
