E-trike/velocar
See what kind of trouble one can get into when retired? It's 'Almost Finished'! What am I saying, these things are never really finished! The journey is always fun, though! The past seven days in Chicago have seen everything from below zero f. temps, snow, ice storms to torrential rains and 61 degree f. temps. Yesterday was 61, rain, wind, today is 29, sun, wind. Gotta love the weather in Chicago, always changing! Here's some pics of the e-trike in the garage, with the Scorpion trike floating above it. Door is held closed with latches, side panel cutouts are for handlebar clearance during sharp turns. Yellow panels are painted coroplast (corex), back end is a snowthrower cab from the local home improvement store. Windows are Lexan in front, soft plastic in rear. Keeps me warm(er) and dry(er) in most all weather conditions. A great day for a ride, none the less, with 33wh/mile avg. over my 7.38 mile long ride. Gotta put the sheepskin on the e-trike soon, keister got just a little chilly! Life is a daily wonder!
