    My day.. new wheeler

    So today was the day that the deal with me and Derrick went down. Me and my dad drove about 3 hours one way to go pick up his Z. The total trip took us about 7 and a half hours because we stopped to eat and stopped to buy some fireworks on the way home and also we had some random pee-breaks.
    So I left around 9 oclock, and ran into some awful traffic around Akron.. then around 12:30 we met Derrick at a McDonalds in Ashland.. lol. Loaded the Z, strapped her on, and off we went.. back home..which was 3 hours away. Well on the way home, me and my dad saw quite a few people eyeing up that Z on the interstate and in the fireworks store parking lot.. it was quite funny to see the people oogling it.. lol. Me and my dad thought that one lady was going to put her head through her passenger side window because she was craning her neck so much to get a look at it, and one guy almost ran off the road trying to see what the hell it was.
    Well we get back to my hometown, which was such a relief. We decide to stop at Sheetz for some gas and a pee break, again. We get all done and I'm sitting in the parking lot with the Z while my dad goes in to get a candy bar and some lady comes across the parking lot and says "I'm sorry to bother you, but I just have to get a look at this thing.", and she continues talking about it. She says "This thing is so sweet.." blah blah blah.. oogles it for awhile, and we leave. This lady told me that her and her husband have 50 trikes and fourwheelers (3 double garages full) and she gave me her contact info so we can keep in touch, do some parts swapping, and maybe buy machines off of eachother. She told me that she has just about every Honda trike except an aircooled 250R.. this lady definately knew what she was talking about. So I am going to get in touch with her and tell her to join on the boards.
    Well anyway.. what was just about all that happened to me today.
    Here are some pics of my new family.. they aren't clean, I didn't have time, but you get the idea.

    Better get used to that. I got it all the time with that bike. Guess it's because it's so different from all the other trikes out there. Alot of curb appeal!

    Hope you have as much fun on it as I did!

    Lol. Ok.. I'll snap them tomorrow. I was just too tired tonight. And thanks, Derrick!
    And I compared the 2 trikes today, and out of the '85R and '85Z, I'd have to pick Honda. I think its just the fact that the R has 6 gears and the Z has 5 gears, though. No biggie! I'm definatley going to fight to keep all of these machines though. I may have to sell my paintball gun and such, but I'm keeping them.. lol.

    Haha. Kintore told me that he didn't want it, in the end. He said that he'd rather do the whole PV thing himself.. -shrugs- I don't know. Did you still want it, Kintore? lol

    I sold my gun and all that, trikes will eventually take over your life. Dont worry its all the natural course, give it about another year and you will own double. I said when I first joined having more than 1 bike is impratical, now I have 3 and soon to have 4

    Its what we do! Its your destiny mcfly!

    And I still want it nouse its a gorgues trike , but now Im porting my own to beat you , your coming to TF right? we will see!


    And its okay chris lol, its all good.

    Love the looks that these wheelers get going down the highway...Looks like you have some nice riding territory behind the house there...Good luck with the Z...Congrats!!!
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.
