Trikes are for Kids... of All Ages

Today's Boring Very Short Track

I had a very short morning window in which to sneak a ride, so I did indeed get a very few miles in.
The weather was cool but not frigid (Though I wore the windbreaker, fully zipped, coming and going).
I forgot the GoPro vid-cam, as is too usual, but I did get a still shot via the Iphone in front of a typical government sign claiming to prohibit cyclists from entering postal property for any reason:

(Sorry about the Sun Glare)
No unusual events occurred, and my main thought as I pedaled the Catrike up and down the road was how much fun it is to zip around on such a machine.  If you haven't tried a trike, you don't know what you're missing.  Doesn't matter if you are young or old or in between, fat or skin and bones.
Tell Charlie over at Two Wheel Drive (just moved the store to Central and Morningside in Albuquerque) we recommended him.  They will gladly let you take fun test rides on any of the several trikes (and hundreds of "normal" diamond-frame upright bikes) they have on display.
