Think 3WW should hold a collection for that family as well? He may not have been a site member, but any active 3 wheeler supporter like him deserves the respect atleast, at the very least maybe find his address or a way he received mail and send cards or something.
This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.
