Trikes and (odd) bikes.

My wife, Shirley, died suddenly of cancer in early April 2022. Only ten days after a diagnostic scan. We had been married for 55 years. I have now made my cycling blog into a highly personal, therapeutic journal. Please be warned that it deals with an extremely emotional subject at times. As a personal record of my recovery, from the shock of my loss, it can get extremely boring. My purchase of a Moustache FS27 "45" Speed e-bike has transformed my cycling after I passed 75.

Trike Racing Trike BOB JACKSON Bicycle RARE Trike on eBay (end time 24-Nov-10 22:06:50 GMT)

I have just come across the bookmark and realised I did not post the images of this trike at the time. Just for completeness I shall post them now. This trike fetched £361 after 20 bids despite obvious cosmetic problems. Somebody wanted it badly enough to pay for it.

Overall view. 21.5" seat and top tube will suit the smaller rider. Crisp red and white paintwork. Rear rack.

7 speed gears on one wheel drive.

Bottom bracket with original lining to lug shell. Some cosmetic rust but, with careful restoration, should not need a complete respray. The chainwheel and cranks look tidy enough.
