We gave them a serious look and rode several belonging to friends, but decided they weren't for us. They're ideal for the contemplated uses on paved roads around the campgrounds. A big part of our biking is taking advantage of the many improved bike trails around the country, however. We found that even with gears, they are problematic off the pavement- even on improved gravel trails. The issue is the small wheels, which are severely affected by ruts, rocks and soft spots.

Yes, Erick. I made from galvanized tin, a ground plane plate. It holds the magnetic antenna. It is about 14 inches in diameter and flat like a pizza pan. It just sets whereever I want the antenna for the moment. I have two ways of moving it about on the roof.

Almost always, the escape hatch trick works...

But thanks to you Jim they will be closely watched. Your brake upgrade is...
