ABC Wednesday > W is for Wheels

These wheels are, in my opinion, the future of transportation. Designed by Gabriola's own Georgi Georgiev, this tricycle has electric assist, ample load-carrying capacity, a low center of gravity and unlike any other trike in the world, it's back wheels won't leave the ground when taking a fast corner. Who needs a car? The smiling rider is my friend Heide Brown: World traveler, tireless volunteer at The Commons and direct descendant of the American abolitionist John Brown.

I especially like the "electric assist". Great for when you're peddling uphill or against the wind.

I'd like one, too, but I'd like more electric than just an assist! :) The future may be here...

Oh, this is fabulous. We're nowhere near ready for this in the States.
