My Type 3 is now finally ready for me to pick up. It has a couple of last minute gremlins to be fixed before I get to load it on my trailer and begin the trip home.
Johann Keyser (TrikingUSA/MotoMotivo in Durham NC.) did the build for me. He says this one is his last build - he downsized his shop and is going semi-retired.
Next, I get to trailer it home to San Antonio, Texas.

Johann took me for a quick demo ride in it and I was definitely smilling.

Drive it. Can't be that far, or can it?

Picked it up in Durham, North Carolina and I live in San Antonio, Texas - about 1400 miles one way.

The challenge now is dealing with the Texas paperwork hassle to get it titled and registered.
