It's all about bling these days, stuff craftsmanship and hard work. Dills wouldn't have noticed the engineering on that rear end if you belted 'em with a brake rotor.
Can I see lots more of this trike Turk? Please.

Page 77 in the latest edition (2010). The caption claims its a rickshaw in Milan.
I think the dude lost the pics of him setting the record in Milan. So when he was in Adelaide for the Fringe Festival last year. He heard about the trike and got some pictures as Guinness had asked for some? I rode the trike in the opening parade and then left it at a mates house for a few days. Then I get a phone call to tell me what I just explained. I never met him. Or the freak show following him around.
I have thought about doing some kind of advertising with a big multinational company? Its hard to walk past it without looking. So with a brand name on it I might be worth something?

did you build it for them??
I'm sure that most people with taste in bikes agree that you have done a good job !
Do you really need to proof that with a 'best bike' award?

The trike looks great you have to be happy with it! Its a shame you didnt get just reward for the extra efforts you put in to have it ready for show time!
Do you have another build coming up?
