My new toy

April 13 I drove to Houston to buy my new toy
the Worksman PAV3-3CB 110 lb 3 speed
industrial tricycle 500 lb GVW. It has thick steel rims
and 11 gage (0.120") spokes. In the past under my 280 lbs
numerous spokes and several Sun Mammoth aluminum
rims broke while riding on paved shoudler of the highway
at heady speeds approaching 8 mph average. These wheels
won't break.

It took real effort to make it over these little sand hills
in low gear. It still takes effort but now I use second gear.
I ride every day. Soon I will ride the same route in third
gear. Like the little train I know I can I know I can.
