Title: Drift Trikes!!!
Post by: Jade67 on July 16, 2012, 12:31:06 PM
Has anyone seen these before?

Trike Drifting - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNZCZsHJIR8)

They are a blast! I have been building them in the Garage for my little brother, sisters, and their friends. After building them a few I build myself one and I am hooked. It is a lot of fun. Doesn't look like much but they are addicting. We just built a tandem trike so that 2 of us can go down at the same time, its hard with 2 people but its a rush. We have a ton of canyons and paved bike paths here in Utah that we can go down so it makes it easy to find places to go. Wakeboard tow rope behind a truck always works too. :lol:
