The pro's and con's of a Trike vs. a 2 wheeler-
Kevin
You touched on it ... but ... IMHO the big plus is the stability ... the older I get the more I like knowing I'm not gonna fall down ... not matter the road surface or situation ... might slide off the road if it's slick ... but I'd do that in a cage on the same surface without due caution.
I liked the video, very good points on both vehicles, especially the potholes, where I live I call it Pothole City, some potholes here even a 2 wheeler can't miss them that is how many we have, I know when I go riding on the trike I take the shortest route to the interstate or secondary road to get away from potholes, granted our interstates here in Iowa still need work and for some reason they don't fix them like other states that has better interstates thru there state, just have to live with it.
All for now Trampas and keep up with the good work
EXCELLENT video. I was considering buying a small 2-wheeler again - 650 or 700 - just to run around on locally.
Kevin reminded me in this video how it is to deal with “stuff” on the road - sand/gravel/animals in the curves, oil on the roads, cagers don’t notice you as much... I have been off of a 2-wheeler since 2012 and on a trike. Those issues had faded a bit as time marched on due to the trike.
SO... Kevin, thank you for the reminder. I’m going to leave the 2-wheeler on the showroom floor.

I know since my switch to 3 wheels over 2 years ago, that move has cut way down on the instances of someone turning in front of me, and I greatly appreciate it. If I could stop the # of times they drift into my lane, that would be real progress.
Thanks for the video Kevin/Devin.

Love the video Keven! You really hit on so many of the great aspects of trike riding. I wish I done the switch sooner. At first I didn't like the way it felt so different. Sliding on the seat turning in parking lots the bumps all horrible at first. After the past 3 year of trike riding you couldn't get me to go back to 2 wheels again. With all the up grades I have learned from this forum. We love taking trips on our trike. Heading to New Hampshire for the foliage. One of our favorite rides. Thanks to you all .
