Waiting around for our honered guests my friend Mark and I were messin with the trike ....It is a wheelie machine if ridden hard. Gerry (islnder102) and wife Linda came down from Wisc. Ratina (Ben) from lombard and oldgreaser (Rick) and son from Elmhurst we al talked bikes for a while and then went for a ride to downtown Geneva for a burger at the Little Owl . We stopped for photos on the way. I gave Linda the GT Autostream that I had fixed up. Her bike was stolen last month.

Islnder102 we have a request for a ride vidio from Snyder on the west coast . Show him what the "middle coast " looks like!
 
Re: Etrike...Islndr102/Skipton/XC204/Oldgreaser/Ratina Done!....

I've been cruising the Etrike by myself lately because Linda has been busy every weekend since I've has the trike back. We're planning a cruise together this weekend so I'll get photos and videos up as soon as I can.

Most Awesome Dude ! I love that smile on your face . Coming to Chi-Town for this months ride?
 
Re: Etrike...Islndr102/Skipton/XC204/Oldgreaser/Ratina Done!....

Good news...I went to see my doctor the other day and he noticed that my legs had gotten stronger. I think it's because of my wanting to cruise as often as I can. If I was in a better neighborhood, I'd take the Etrike out everyday. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Re: Etrike...Islndr102/Skipton/XC204/Oldgreaser/Ratina Done!....

That is a wicked bike. I like how you can't obviously tell it is electric.
