How many of us have to have our hack/trike?
After reading another thread I wondered, how many of us have our hack/trike because we have to, else we couldn't ride. I think I have to have mine because if I rode a 2-wheeler, sooner or later, I'm gonna find the bike leaning to my right and I'm going down. So, yeah, I'm pretty sure I have to have mine or else I couldn't ride.

My wife feels very unstable on 2 wheels, being she has fibromialga and has a balance problem quite often. So she is comfortable on her Sporty with training wheels

RE: How many of us have to have our hack/trike?
It is not a must have situation and actually I prefer two wheels. I was looking for a way to have my wife be with me for long rides and to be comfortable. And grand kids are here and more coming and I thought this would be the perfect and safe way for me to combine my 2 favorite things to do(besides my wife).... motorcycles and grand kids.

I got mine so my wife would be more comfortable and able to handle the long rides we take. The added storage room is a big plus also for those long trips.

Hey Y'all! I am a below knee left amputee and a trike just works perfectly for me! My wife loves it too and, you know, when mama's happy....

RE: How many of us have to have our hack/trike?
I just happened to be at the dealership the day they were setting it up for display. Though I had never ridden one I have always liked them ever since watching On Any Sunday back when it first came out.My purchase was not out of necessity, just got a wild hair that day in the dealership. Put money down &bought it the next day. I accidently flew the hack on the way home, DeeDee was behind me in her car and it scared her to see that. OK it got my attention too. Loads of fun doing that since.
'04 Ultra, Smokey Gold/Vivid Black, matching TLE Ultra. We rode it to Sturgis in '05, 5,000 miles round trip (we live in SW Florida) including a stop at her folks' in Green Bay.DeeDee knitted a 5'x7' rug for the living room during the trip. We gotquite a few laughs from other traffic.
Seems like everybody, from kids to old folks,likes side cars.
