2nd test run, I reached 34.7 mph.  Afterwards, I figured out what I was doing 
wrongly with the computer and am expecting to bust 40 mph tomorrow.

Funny thing is, my gizmo'll transport me 60 miles on a single charge.for 
about a dollar's worth of solar electricity.
   Even a 60 mile per gallon car still costs about 3 bucks to do the same 
distanceand hey, it might be about as tiny a car possible...not unlike my 
gizmo...and cost ten times as much.  I put mine together for $2300 -- and 
that's paying full retail for parts and doing my own labor.  This thing could 
cost $300 if massively produced.  My gizmo has the same torque per pound of 
vehicle weight as the Tesla.  Nice, eh?

Someone somewhere has got to get a vision of possibilities and see this 
platform for the urban transport solution that it can bethen the Chinese 
will steal it and USE it and the rest of the world can catch up.

So, hey, if China suddenly built these machines and saved the world the burden 
of all that carbon it would pollute with otherwise, well, then, why, yes, I do 
declare that I could put up a decent debate with the TMO about my having done 
more.  HA! HA!

But, the rub is that I, personally, would testify that sentience is SILENT yet 
actual, and any effort, even Maharishi's twistedness yet still DID put hearts 
and minds onto the  vastnesses unexplored within -- I gotta think that on the 
psychological level alone, it's good therapy.  
 
Spiritually, to get more and more subtle cannot, to my reasoning, be a bad 
thing.  Not that transcending cures personality dynamics, but that doing so 
is to see ever more clearly that the mind is but a processing beyond even, say, 
Brahma's ken, and that experienced-based clarity has to trank down the mind 
just because one learns that thoughts come without planning and that no 
particular thought necessarily has any causal properties, and this MEANS 
EVERYTHING if one is to find a moral regimen to espouse.

So, nope.  I'd say better another Maharishi is inflicted upon the world than my 
gizmo becoming a success -- someone'll figure even a better way maybe that I 
cannot yet imagine.

But imagining better ways to work the mind?  Give me a break -- it was all 
discovered around a cave's campfire.

So, I would hold that only the traditional techniques -- imagined 200,000 years 
ago maybe, eh? -- used by at least 1% of the population for decades (a guess!) 
-- can hope to put Earth's civilizations into a truly human-hearted mode, and 
the golden age that Maharishi sold us all on -- in Fuiggi Fonte, Italy when the 
2nd Moon landing happened, might actually dawn.  Ha!  But I'll never see it, 
nope.  I'm 70 years old, and to clean up the Earth's Kali Yuga mess, even

I watched the video, and was impressed, Edg. Not so much by the new Trike 
landspeed record (although I guess that is quite an achievement), but by the 
seemingly efficient design of this mini-trike, and how it could fairly easily 
be hand-transportable on a train or bus in between rides. That would be a big 
factor for here in the Netherlands, as would a secure way to lock it and not 
lose it when you stop to run into a store. 


Not having seen any trikes since your first videos of the human-powered 
version, I was pleased to see that with this smaller, powered version there is 
none of that right-left zigzagging that seemed to be necessary with the 
original Trike. That weaving stuff is probably why I've never seen a Trike in 
the Netherlands -- you wouldn't be able to ride one on the crowded streets and 
bike lanes without bumping into people right and left. But the powered trike in 
these videos would probably fit in on crowded city streets as well as, say, a 
Segway.

Excellent, Edg!! Really cool - Nice save when you hit the sand. I remember your 
non-motorized one, and you had some pumping action from the rear wheels, for 
momentum - probably not explaining it well, but I am curious if you augment the 
motor that way, or are the rear wheels simply for greater stability, on this 
model? Great job - really inspiring. PS get some knee-pads.

 Have you thought about marketing this vehicle to the Chinese?
 
 Sure. But they already know about this, because all of it is being 
manufactured already in China.  But, the Trikke Tech company puts out a 16 mph 
machine, and it just doesn’t have enough punch to be a true workhorse.  So, 
that machine has NOT been pirated in China, because it ain’t gots da mojo.  
This new high speed version  might turn heads though, so stay tuned.  
 
 
 hand-transportable on a train or bus in between rides. That would be a big 
factor for here in the Netherlands, as would a secure way to lock it and not 
lose it when you stop to run into a store. . . . that right-left zigzagging 
that seemed to be necessary with the original Trike. That weaving stuff is 
probably why I've never seen a Trike in the Netherlands -- you wouldn't be able 
to ride one on the crowded streets and bike lanes without bumping into people 
right and left. But the powered trike in these videos would probably fit in on 
crowded city streets as well as, say, a Segway. 
 
 There already is a huge success in the Netherlands – Trikke is more popular in 
Europe.  Yep, fold ‘em and take a bus ride.  A standard bike-lock secures it.  
The left-right zigzagging is not needed for a motorized version, but I am 
always carving no matter what – it forces one to be mindful and IN CHARGE when 
an errant bump occurs.  The left-right thing can be greatly tamped down without 
losing control, but it’s so much fun to do that I do it muchly…..even though 
doing so doesn’t add even a titch to the speed or help the battery all that 
much.  On the manual Trikke I can do a very VERY dense crowd scenario – I can 
inch along or hit-it (either manually or with motor) for a six foot burst 
forwards – total control in these situations – absolutely not a problem.  The 
Segway is a brute that just doesn’t fit in so many situations, and it costs 
three times more than my gizmo...don't need a computer to keep your balance for 
ya if you have Trikke's 3-point stance.  Very secure feeling.
 
 
 Hey cool! It's a new personal transport paradigm.
 But there's a lot of serious hills where I live so my first question is, can 
it climb?
 
 You betcher bippy it can climb.  20 N.m torque.  The top-speed suffers a bit 
then though.  My local hills can knock 4 mph off of top speed.
  
 Has it been crash tested yet?  :-D 
  
 Yep, I’ve crashed every Trikke and been injured many times.  This new one adds 
a whole notch more danger, so I’m taking it VERY EASY and doing the learning 
curve.   Just finally got healed up enough to stop groaning from an ankle 
sprain using my ski-bladed Trikke and taking a tumble.  Funzies!

is, can it climb?


You betcher bippy it can climb.  20 N.m torque.  The top-speed suffers 
a bit then though.  My local hills can knock 4 mph off of top speed.


Has it been crash tested yet?  :-D

Yep, I’ve crashed every Trikke and been injured many times. This new 
one adds a whole notch more danger, so I’m taking it VERY EASY and 
doing the learning curve.   Just finally got healed up enough to stop 
groaning from an ankle sprain using my ski-bladed Trikke and taking a 
tumble.  Funzies!




Hehe, I figured so.  I was concerned about racing the thing through that 
apartment parking lot where you could've been hit by someone backing 
out.  Many lots have about a 5 mph limit.  Good luck with it!

32 mph on my new Trikke -- built one with a more powerful motorold 
hand-built, motorized Trikke did 18.5 mph.also a record when I first built 
that one.

No powered Trikke in the world can match this.yet.   My buddy's building 
his as I type.for the last three years we've been the fastest trikkers on 
the planet.  

Downhill speeds for non-motorized Trikkes have far exceeded that speed -- I 
have too, but for an on-the-flats powered experience, this is a world first.

You may envy me in your spare moments.

congrats!
