Hi, just found the website, joined and already had a welcome message. Already found a few useful threads and looking forward to reading a lot more plus contributing to the forum. I am based near Ilminster, Somerset, UK. I ride a Boom Highway trike. Found it in a shipping container in a rather sorry state. Virtually rebuilt it and it is now fully legal and been on the road for about 3 weeks.
With a whole list of medical problems, I was starting to find that my hips and legs didn't always work as they should. This cause a few near miss's when stopping at junctions. So about 12 months ago I tarted thinking about going from a bike to a trike. Started building a trike using a 1300 Ford Escort Crossflow engine and autobox, then found the boom trike. Been buy getting used to riding a trike instead of a bike has been a bit of a learning curve. Everything works differently and I don't have as much power as I am used to. Having said that, I am loving every minute of it. Got a few things I need to sort out on the trike, like cleaning and servicing the carb, but nothing I can't deal with.
Thanks for the welcome.
