Trikke

The Trikke (/ˈtraɪk/ tr-EYE-k) is a three wheeled scooter-like vehicle designed and marketed by Trikke Tech Inc. The patented cambering mechanism allows the rider to propel this chain-less and pedal-less human-powered vehicle without ever touching foot to ground. The design provides a stable 3-point platform that lets riders lean into the turns while all three wheels remain in contact with the ground.

The front wheel can be turned left and right using the handlebars, with the axis of rotation offset towards the front of the wheel. The rear wheels are connected to independent arms and are fixed to face directly forward. The independent arms are almost touching at the front end, and are around 30 cm (12 in) apart at the rear end. The rider stands on the two foot platforms above the rear wheels. The mechanism that joins the independent arms and the front wheel/handlebars structure allows all three wheels to remain touching the ground when the handlebars are leaned to the left or right. The handlebars have two brake levers that control the brakes on the left and right rear wheels independently (although they are always both applied by the rider at the same time).

Chaos

by: Tricky

(Tricky and A. Smith -> Aka Ambersunshower ) ...
Ambersunshower :
She's been waiting for that special someone
Anguished by the tears left behind them
Fortifying all that lying
Putrid taste left in her mouth
Chorus :
(Ambersunshower sings while Tricky raps)
Ambersunshower :
Follow me, follow me
Down
Follow me, follow me
Down
Tricky :
Yeah, c'mon
Let's do the maniac
Maniac, bumping like a brainiac
Brainiac, I don't remember [?]
Land me down, touch me down at heathrow
Reach down, the first time I ever feel
Bouncers [face?] on 57th st
Calm down, I feel a cool breeze and
Not particular
I think I found a reason
[For I saw?] what I saw
Ambersunshower :
She's been waiting for that special someone
But then look what she's got left
Fortifying all that lyingputrid taste left in her mouth
Chorus :
(Ambersunshower sings while Tricky raps)
Ambersunshower :
Follow me, follow me
Down
Follow me, follow me
Down
Tricky :
Yeah, c'mon
Let's do the maniac
Maniac, bumping like a brainiac
Brainiac, I don't remember [?]
Land me down, touch me down at heathrow
Reach down, the first time I ever feel
Bouncers [face?] on 57th st
Calm down, I feel a cool breeze and
Not particular
I think I found a reason
[For I saw?] what I saw
A: contamination cramps the surface
blood runs cooler than you flow
she is hiding smiles behind whispers and tears
chaos reaches higher ground
Ambersunshower :
Chaos, chaos, chaos
Ambersunshower :
Follow me, follow me
Down
Follow me, follow me
Down
