    No Xbox, but I do ride one of these. Put in 32 miles yesterday and had a fun time. Stick to the local trails, of which there are plenty up around here.

    Does immature count? I do have an XBone, but I haven't done anything online, I just like noodling around in games finding puzzles, shooting stuff, blowing stuff up.

    Just the weekend, I spent like 8 hours playing GTA San Andreas. Definitely still a kid at heart.

    There's that saying: "Boys never actually grow up, their toys just get bigger and more expensive."

    I picked up a 22SCT a couple years ago and the guys that talked me into quit running their trucks less than 3 weeks after I got it up and running. That thing was stupid fast. It was fun though.

    Looks like a invitation to fall asleep behind the...ehh...pedal?

    It is relaxing. I can ride 100 miles and get off pain free. 40 miles on a upright bike and I am in horrible pain. We rode back from Peru in a 25 mph headwind with gusts. I averaged 11 mph over 15 miles on the return. Never felt wore out. That included the 4.5 mile climb out of Peru. The trike is more aerodynamic and faster than a regular bike in that circumstance.

    I am one of the youngest riders in my group. Average age is 65. We get together and sound like a bunch of kids at recess.

    I look in the mirror and think, "WTF. How did this happen?"
    In my mind, I'm 20.
    Unfortunately, my body says I'm 100.

    Aren't those a bit pricey? I thought about one for awhile.

    Aren't those a bit pricey? I thought about one for awhile.

    They run anywhere from $900 for a basic SUN to $4500 for a German or U.K. made H.P Velotechnik or ICE trike. TerraTrike is based out of Grand Rapids, MI and they run in the $1200 range.

    Both the wife and I have Catrikes. They are made in Orlando, FL and have a lifetime warranty on the frame. Ours were in the $2300-$2500 range. Victory Bike Shop in Kokomo specializes in trikes and they have the largest inventory in Indiana. They also have their own YouTube Channel. The owner is very, very pro-gun and it is probably the most politically incorrect place in Indiana. Lots of trikers hang out there and it is a laugh a minute.

    If you ever what to meet up and ride, let me know. The bike shop has a Catrike loaner that I could borrow and let you try out. We have ridden the Panhandle Pathway in Winimac, the Monon in Indy, the Cardinal Greenway from Muncie to Richmond, and the Nickle Plate from Kokomo to Rochester. I've also ridden from Greentown to Elkhart on my Catrike Expedition in one day, (115 miles).
