[python] Re: a newborn

Jürgen, if you feel that my trike questions are out of place here, please tell me; if that is the reason my last post never made it to the mailing list and got no reaction I would have appreciated a notification ( I just thought the graphics were too large). The designs have been a great inspiration to me and continue do do so. It is just that my sense of balance is slightly impaired and I dare not put the effort in a two wheeler I may never be able to ride - no matter how many other people can do so. Plus I want to use it in the winter. 
Feel free to erase/withdraw any posts of mine that broke netiquette here.
Yours
Stefan

Hello Tobias,
thanks for filling out the news vacuum and for interrupting the eternal trike-thread with your newborn baby. Nicely done and with some features that are completely new. First the use of three small rod-ends instead of two big ones (keep an eye on the plate that holds the bolts of the rod ends: seems a little undersized to me), and second the oversized tires that make any other suspensions superfluous. Get yourself a seat and tell us how it rides. 

Schöne Grüße,
Jürgen.
PS: Right, I toured around the whole sunny weekend with my P3, along with my wife on her P1. Great weather and great time!

hi pythonauts,
there seems to be a lack of news, silence in the list. so let's fill
this with the happy news of a newborn py, just here in reutlingen. no
roll-out so far, but we're on our way.also, she doesn't have a name yet. 
only specification for now: she weights a ton. all that rubber,
probably. i bet you are all out riding. do you "ride" or "fly" a python? tobi gommel

Hi Stefan
I too get inspired when I see new trike / bike ideas. I would sit for hours making sketches and then eventually firing up my PC do do a bit of CAD or Blender Modelling. These ideas never seem to make it past that stage as always find something else to tinker with. I have been riding my trike for most of the year, still in uncompleted form. I find it amazing that women (the wife)will say. "When are you going to stop making that rubbish and buy a car?". Then when you are finally done. " Honey I need you to fetch some rocks for my new garden feature in your new trike. Well my new trike is now old and the rust has taken its toll on her. I have attached a photo of the new trailer that I will be using for my new trike rear end. It is made of fibre glass. 1000mm long, 500mm wide, and +/- 350mm deep. It weighs 8kg, and will have 20" wheels all round. I dont know what her carrying capacity will be " Hi Bruno " :-[ . I should finish the drawings by the month end. If you or anyone is interested, I will post it. The one feature that I like about it, is that it lockable. 8-) So nobody will be able to steal my beers while I am getting some snacks to eat while riding. It will be based on my bike/trike convertable as i like the minimalist look. Which also means fewer things that can break, or bend or assemble incorrectly.
I originally built the trike for hauling goods. But I spend loads of time just aimlessly cruising around with no particular place to go. 
Anyway I have to go now
Cheers
Gavin
