We Ditched our Bikes and Got TRIKKES!!!

Jared and I have decided that we would like to do something really unique. We are going to be the first people to do long distance touring on Trikkes. We threw our bicycles into the Colorado River and are now the proud owners of two Trikkes.

Seriously though this subculture is amazing. They seem to have an affinity for khakis and really shitty techno:

    I found one of these trikkes in a pawn shop for $89.95…. what a bargain considering how useful these little jewels are…..

    so…. is TRIKKE pronounced like “tricky” or is it like “tryyyyyyyyyyyykehkeh”?

    In the year 2034 we all will think back and wonder how we ever lived with those primitive 2D bicycles.

    Mickey “you are just used to that boring straight line.” You need to get with it and get yourself a Trikke.

    I can just see it now, they erect Trikke paths along side regular roads that are about two car lanes wide and squiggly the whole way.
