The 24"Schwinn Tricycle

Old Age (Eye's) and driving a car have reached that point in my life.
Driving myself ended last November and I have depended on others to drive
me and my car for local needs. (Bank; Market; Pharmacy etc.) Disposed of the car
in May of this year and them bought a 24" Schwinn Tricycle kit. Spent the last
month try mg to get the "bike legs" back into shape. Unfortunately,due to old age
they did not respond, so I bought and installed,a front Power Whee.Called a
"Hill topper" by Clear Republic.This is a 250w Electric geared motor built into
the front wheel and is powered by a battery, which is rated for 20 miles.

So I am again able to go to the Bank etc. What a great feeling to have a bit of
independence back again.

The eyes are still good enough for photo's I think, let me know if this gallery
is at least presentable.
