Cute pre- Triking cartoon, Frederick.
I'd never heard of a Cyclops so had to google it. I'm guessing the safest part of it was the speed it traveled at :) "Tongue-in - cheek" article on it here https://www.conceptcarz.com/z21296/Cyclops-II.aspx

Great stuff Frederick,
Are you or anyone else on here any good at cartooning? The car bit in particular and ideally Triking cartoons?
All the best
Richard

What great car cartoons Frederick are you Stan in another life?

I asked as we don't have any budget in the Trifles coffers but an artwork contribution from members would be a good addition to the reading I thought. Triking, face on, at speed on corner towards the viewer; Triking disappearing over the brow of a hill as a sign off for Trifles; Triking blowing a Morgan into the weeds sort of thing Frederick. I don't have any comic ideas at present but you have set the cogs a whirring.

How would you like to express the fun in a Triking you are going to have fairly soon?
