Some VERY useful info there--thanks GWT!-Keep that front wheel in the middle of your lane.
Really, right in all that oil, grease and dirt?
If I am the second bike, I ride with my front tire to the right of the center of my lane. That puts my right rear tire just about 4 to six inches from the right side line. And gives the appearance of riding in a staggered format. Most two wheelers still have enough room to get around me if they need to.
If I am the Odd number bike I ride with front tire to the left of the center of the lane.
First addition - the one inch convex mirrors so I can see the fenders.
Good idea on any vehicle you drive
After you become more familiar with the trike and are riding with a group of 2 wheelers in the twisties take care that you do not run over them in the turns.

for an old man like me (68) it is the only way to go.I would like to solicit the help of you veteran trike owners who don't mind sharing your experiences and knowledge with novice trikers. Please share your stories and advice with those making the switch from bike to trike. Safety, group riding protocol, touring are a few suggested threads.
Thanks!
