Paul, I am excited that you will get your face in the wind once again. Please keep us informed, as we all are with you on this project.
Congrats with the start of the trike build.

Over a year w/o riding, and then getting back in the saddle!?!??!
A BRAND NEW saddle at that!!!!,
Oh HECK YA!!!!
Thanks Everyone,
Yes it will be the first F6B trike in the UK as far as I know, and certainly the only one in Scotland. There has been a few weeks delay on the build as I had to wait for a new differential to be made for me. As Trike Lady will know in most cases you have to add an external reverse gearbox to the diff. This will allow me to reverse the trike as I can't get off and push it due to my paralysis. However the builders have found a guy that has developed a diff with the reverse gear incorporated in the same box, it's being used for racing cars. This means that the trike will be a little shorter, I mean no extra box added to the diff. They are made to order so I had to wait my turn to get my built. But the Trike Shop have it now, so it's all systems go
It's been a long year without being in the saddle, and I can't wait to get onto this one. It's not until you can't do something that you realise just how much you miss it. In July three of my biker brothers visited from Ireland, I had to sit and watch them ride off for a day trip to the Isle of Skye Two days later I ordered my F6B, and now I'll have it in a few weeks

Paul, next year I already have plans to fly over to Edinburgh, and ride with a couple friends over tthere. These are guys you have probably heard of, and they are willing to lend me one of their bikes, as we tour all of Scotland, parts of Ireland, most of Wales, and a very few places in that other country...er...oh yeah..England. Anyway, not wanting to be an ass by dropping big names here (anymore than Hornblower already thinks I am ), but the guys I am visiting with, and staying with, are E.M. and C.B. I think you can figure that out.
When I come out next late Spring, how about if I get together with you for a lunch, and the four of us can chew the fat, so to speak ?
