Thought it might interest you lot so here's his PM: The Sidecar/Trike Education Program was originallyput together by the United SideCar Association(USCA). David Hough administered it through the Sidecar Safety Program for a number years, which became a separate corporation for insurance liability reasons. David gave the program to the Evergreen Safety Council in Seattle, Washington which currently administers the program Washington State uses it for training an licensing trike and sidecar drivers in that state(none of the other states require a license specific for three wheeled use). I live in Oregon, where I am struggling to start a sidecar tour company. As a first step I became a certified sidecar and trike instructor and have been conducting classes here the past couple of years, as well as occasionally going north to teach for Evergreen in Seattle. Sidecars are my passion. I have only ridden trikes during class when I teach in Seattle. I wanted some real street time in the saddle and I need a trike for my classes here, so I decided to build a trike. For our curriculum it needs to be a conventional motorcycle based trike with suspension and with brakes on both wheels. It has been a learning experience so far. I am hopeful I can get the gearing issues sorted out and will have a nice machine when I get finished. You can find out more about what I do and the S/TEP program by visiting my website http://adventuresidecar.com/index.html Title: Re: "Hi" from Adventure Sidecar USA Post by: BikerGran on August 06, 2007, 06:27:20 PM I have a friend who does something similar with a sidecar - and sometimes ends up like this!
