Four wheeled trike???
Is this a poor man's trike??? Four wheels.
Maybe I'll keep my scoot into my seventies if I can find one of these

I've seen a couple of these around the Denver/Boulder area. They remind me of training wheels on a kid's first bike.

I believe it a "Voyager"
easy to hook up and easy to remove.
Many with leg/hip issues use them.
Gotta be way better than not riding!
By the way, did you notice the flags are mounted incorectly? US goes on the right rear.

I've seen three of those around. Do they still use the original tire and the other two just roll along? I have seen one that had the original wheel removed but still had the rear fender. That one obviously was driving the outer wheels.
I say way to go to these riders. Too bad you can't ride on two wheels anymore, but riding is better than not riding. Hope my knees or hips never get that bad, but good to know there are solutions to ride.

Anybody know of a website that describes/sells them???
Those have GOT to be a helluva lot cheaper than a trike conversion or purchase.
