Reminds me of when I pedaled a three wheeled ice cream cart in grade school. Oh those hills could be scary!

Better Seat

Looks like a great starter unit. All you need to add is the FlexoSteel Leather seat and maybe Cruise Control.

I wonder if it has trailer brakes to assist going down that hill ?


Here in the north it would be towed by an ATV and used as a ice fishing shanty.

Can you pedal fast enough on a 100*+ day to keep cool?
Or do you only travel at night with candle beam headlights to take advantage of the cooler temps?

I do not think the issue would be with diesel. More likely with gas!

Methinks you are probably over your rear GAWR and possibly your GCWR as well.

Grandma went on strike and we're on the side of the road in Alaska! I'm sure tired of eating raw fish!

Yeah, she's been wanting to travel with us for a while, and I finally gave in and let her come, and that's how she shows her appreciation!
