I understand from Rob, one of the organisers, that there are now 17 tricycles booked onto this meet and they're getting close to the maximum number of attendees. So, if you're planning to go best to book asap rather than miss out. Should be a good meet with excellent driving and socialising...

It looked a good run Tony, my Triking is currently SORN whilst I argue with VOSA/DVLA about whether or not it needs an MOT after the first year. With hindsight the MOT renewal date would be better in the spring/summer than the middle of winter..!

Hi Richard, mine shows as registered on 01/01/2021 though I submitted enough proof of content from the donor to get an age related registration number.

Best of all though, it was a crisp Autumn day with bright su...

Hi Mark, good idea, let's liaise nearer the time.

Cheers Dave

It seems best to keep the frame and V5 from the donor until the Triking has passed the MSVA and is registered. The frame can then have the number ground off before you sell it though my experience was that no-one is really interested in buying a secondhand frame - in the end I got rid of it with a b...

I found this on the Barlow trailers website... A-frames and dollies If you attach an A-frame to a car in order to tow it with a larger vehicle, the car plus the A-frame counts as a trailer. If you use a dolly to tow a broken-down vehicle, the dolly counts as a trailer. In both cases, the usual safet...
