Good evening from Newtown. Weird driving round wales & all the pubs still closed.
Even the chippies are closed for a sneaky pie

Wots a sneaky, an how does you trap em?

I got a tiny bit of work done on the trike today and I fastened a seat mount to the frame and put the wheels on to see what it "felt like".
I can report that it feels "high-up" & "dangerous"

. My false hip is quaking in its boots, as is my repaired shoulder (from the last tumble off one of my trikes).

I am smiling because:
1. First time I have sat on it with a seat mounted.
2. I have not crashed and fallen off yet

Uh-huh, whatever it is between his legs is, it needs two hands...

Thinks centre mass should be closer to the axle line though?

There doesn't look a lot of room for moving the handlebars from side to side. You won't be able to do them fancy rear end skids that the kids around here do.

No real bars on it yet @Colthebrummie , those are just to operate the brakes that lock the wheels and prevent it toppling over.
The real handlebar will be Under-Seat-Steering with a bar-link to the front forks. This is the next item on the agenda.

Good word. Far superior to salopette or (ugh) overall.
Aware of origin?

Maybe make it longer and bring the seat down lower, so it's more like a hammock slung between the front fork and the back axle?

The boots are cheap rubbish <£30 but the toecap is reinforced very well and is useful for balancing heavy objects on while I am building/making stuff.
