Have a safe season

I wish you all a safe and great riding season! I miss riding but maybe a trike or a Harley with a side car soon :) as a retirement gift to me

The sidecar setup would look better. I read that there is a trick to riding the sidecar and the trike is also different when riding it.

Saw a couple of cheap Goldwing trikes recently.

Take a look at a Ural. They have 2wd sidecar rigs and you could ride year round with it.

Good idea ponch.. I read a book about a guy who traveled across Siberea
in the winter on one. He camped along the way .

Good to see you still thinking about doing some riding. I hope it works out
for you. Went for a ride Saturday, it was great to get out again!

Thanks everyone> I do miss riding! Think about all the time. I keep wanting to put off selling the Nomad but selling it and have the $$ is better then no extra $$$ lol. Looking like I may be forced to retire nut I am ok with that :). And 3 wheels will be the best for me :)
