I see those all the time around here and they are cool! They remind me of a snowmobile and if you look at it carefully it's essentially what it is with tires instead of track and skis.

I wonder if they had handicapped people in mind when they invented these? I mean for any disabled motorcycle enthusiast that can't ride a two wheeler anymore....what better can you get?

Is your BF disabled? you two can rid eon it and have fun...

Nope, my boyfriend is not disabled. He just thinks it's cool. Said it would be easier to ride for long bike trips.

I refuse to get on a motorcycle. Even if it's a three-wheeler. One, I'm deathly afraid of motorcycles, and two, I have problems with claustrophobia. Putting a helmet on would make me scream. (I about freaked when I had my brain MRI in 2006 and they strapped me down with that helmet on my head.)

Sweet! Enjoy it every minute that you can. This makes my day.

My Mom who is in her 70s has a horse that she loves and she rides him 4-5 times a week with the knowledge that her time is limited. One thing she has always said is if God forbid something happens to her do not blame the horse and know that she was doing what she loves more than anything in the world.

I hope both of you are able to continue riding for many years.
