cornwall in august,lovely time of year if ur a duck,malc broke his anckle two days prior to going so that left me and julie,we took bikes thinking we would get a few miles in but julie is a fine weather cyclist(very fine weather)so we managed about 10 miles on the monday,tues rain set in so of to ice recumbents to have a look round their show room which turned out to be a tent in the corner of the workshop,chris the owner was very obliging showing me their different trike and then proceeded to get them out for me to ride round the carpark.after trying every model trike they had in there,after which he offered the loan of two trikes for the weekend one with electric motor for julie,so saturday morning saw us heading up the devron trail truro to portreath and back the 2nd good day.the performance of the ice adventurer 2 was brilliant so much so that monday morning a nice shiney red one built to my spec was ordered and collected monday afternoon,well impressed with the team at ice.

julie loved the fact that she could keep up on the hills will a little twist of the hand,and chris at ice said the rear wheel hub motor type would give about 30 mile and it was quick.certainley made me work keeping up when she used it,and there was no dragb when not in use,by the way thanks for following,will stop n chat next time i see you around abbeydale /millhouses.xx
