Post by: twisted on May 22, 2017, 09:07:48 AM
So my form to tax my trike came through the door not long again and i reliased its been three years on the road and would now need its first MOT  :o

Found a test center in slough (recommended by goose) that does class 3 and booked it in for saturday.

But all good got a clean bill of health so now to tax her again for another year  ;D

Well done Craig. Another established, long life trike, though you've a way to go to beat Twisted Patience's record -something like 18 years on the road now.

I don't know about that, I do know of much older trikes about but whether or not they have been on the road since they where built is a mystery.

Oh by the way WELL DONE!!!

My bike was converted in 2004 and has been on the road almost all the time since then except the last year - and I did thousands of miles on it!  Will be sadly for sale as soon as I get a new battery though.
