A short ride video

OK, here's a little video, with no value, other than a few minutes of entertainment.
A couple weeks ago, we went for a 22-mile ride on our 38th anniversary. The video is of the southern end of the Tallahassee - St Marks rail trail, here in Florida.

The ride did bring up one point about riding a homemade trike - It's often an almost certain conversation starter.
At the little park where we stopped for lunch, there was a couple riding what looked like some high-end commercial trikes - ICE's, or something like that.
Since trikes are kind of rare in this part of FL., the husband wandered over, and seemed to be looking at mine.
He walked around to the front, and bent over to look at the front of the cross boom - I told him he wouldn't find a logo :)
During the following conversation, he said he thought my welds looked good - I said it depends on who you ask - If you asked me, I'd say they were terrible 🙄
So, a warm weather ride, to maybe cheer up those still in the grip of almost-Spring :

 
Great to see your diy achievements acknowleged.
It is showing people how patience and creativity can give a new trike and life from reused parts and as much enjoyment as a brand new product.
I bet your welds will last long, as happily celebrating your 38th would augur
 
Lovely relaxing video. I envy your great cyclepaths and the polite and thoughtful motorists you encountered. Your video showed the sort of tricycling I would enjoy. Gentle and plenty of time to enjoy nature and the scenery.
