These were taken August 5, 2009, before return of the damaged fairing for repair. |
Zeke, these are for you [and my other readers]. Sorry for the delay.

These were taken @9:20 p.m. EDT [with a full moon] and are comparable to these. |

At the end of the day, I think I can [will] be seen and I can see the road in front of me. Where I may not be seen, I should be heard. Cycling is about minimizing risk. Although low and riding an all black trike, I think I have taken actions to minimize, to the degree that I can, my risk. Mindful, that I am an experienced rider and try to ride defensively. Trusting this works for me and hoping that through this blog, I may have given other riders ideas about their safe riding, day or night. –jim
Positively BADASS…. ;^)
Hi Paul,
Thank you! You are very kind. I think cameras tend to exaggerate a bit. But, I think I’ll be seen. –jim
Wowzer! No, make that a DOUBLE WOWZER! She’s everything I expected and nothing less! I hope to see her “live” someday or, better yet, evening. Thanks for the pics! Will you be putting the front fairing back on or are you approaching a final “solution” for Silk?

Hi Zeke, I’m delighted they meet your expectations. I do think cameras tend to overstate. It was moderately dark with flash pointed skyward. I had to go with my 50mm lense. It is faster. I could have changed ISO. I just wanted to give you so idea.
I’d welcome a ride with you–day or night or both. I need to get my legs back and send my tummy away. I’ve had too little riding this year.
The front fairing goes back, providing I’m able to get the mods I want. I have a design Idea, I’m working on with Catrike. I hope final, but she has evolved. I’ve been satisfied with each of her looks, although the faling gives her a special look.
I quess, stay tuned.
Thanks Zeke!
Take care.
Jim
