Delta is a brand? You guys are capitalizing it. Or do you just mean a conventional step-through frame tricycle?

Yes, it would live in a garage.

I understand and expect this viewpoint. But consider, I'm frustrated now! I'm used to it. If you looked at my Strava you could see it's estimating sub-100W much of the time (though I don't have a power meter or GPS). I'm going to be frustrated in a different way afterward, because I'm going to have a heart that's supposed to be working again, or at least much better, with lower beta blocker dose, under doctor's orders to simultaneously do a lot of light cardio but avoid doing any heavy lifting and definitely no impacts. I live in central CA, so whatever I do it will be outdoors. Why dodder around the neighborhood - can't walk the dog, he yanks - and then drive three miles to work?
