Van, great work so far. Keep us posted. Just a word of warning; you're going to have as much trouble on some of those sharp curves on our trails as I will on the chopper. You and I will be at the back of the pack come spring. :)

I've been toying around with the idea of building a trike but instead of powering the wheel that's already pedal-powered, I want to connect the engine to the other wheel. Would be great to have both wheels powered in the snow.

mike, ive got a plan in the works for the next trike that is a dual freewheeling hub setup that will give me the ability to turn while still haveing both wheels powered

i dont plan on taking this thing on the path much...its too wide...especially if i make another trailer hitch for it...its gonna be my chill bike for going to denver hauling parts back home etc...gonna try and make it more show then go...so not a ton of hauling unless i make an insert for normal riding and my basket for utility...lots of ideas...trying to pick my best thought up concepts

I was looking forward to seeing this on the trail, but hey, if you were able to sell it then why not? Plus Andrew has a trailer for us this season, he said he don't mind carrying gas, beer, ect. You gonna throw any of that money into your MP?? Keep us posted :)
