New Pacific North Wet member
New member here, been collecting parts for about 12 years now, finally have enough parts & incentive to start the build this summer. I hope.
Wondering if anyone else is in the PacNorWet? I'm in Cherryville, in the foothills of Mt Hood, Oregon. Looking for others interested in building, chatting, hanging out and riding once the thing is done.
I have a 50 mile each way commute to work, so I figured for the 3-5 months a year I can, it would be a blast to ride my home built trike in to work.
My biggest hangup with building so far has been: settling down on one design!
I like V8, VW, Subaru and Pinto powered trikes. I also like front, mid and rear engine setups. On top of that, I like open trikes (think California Cruiser and Asphalt Angel by Ed Big Daddy Roth) and enclosed trikes (think Mailbox by Roth).
About the only decisions I have made for sure are: NOT bike apowered, NOT reverse trike, and must have King & Queen seating, because momma wants to ride on the weekends.
The hardest part for me is: I know what I like when I see it and I know what I don't want for myself when I see it, but I'm not sure how to make it right until after I've built it. *shaking head*
Yeah, basket case #1 coming to the PNW soon, watch for pictures. Lmfao
