[python] Re: riding attempts

Jim,
my parents are much older than you are. At your age my mother learned inline-skating and for january they have planned to go for skiing. So just do your thing and stop to wonder if you are too old. Maybe you will need some more time to learn, but people at your age are very patient, usually ;-) 

Good luck,
Stephan

Ok 
You guys are scaring the crap out of me.  I turn 62 in 5 days and I do not
want to spend my birthday in traction :.)

I plan to try to start riding mine next week end.  Just a few minor
adjustments to make first. 
Maybe I should start with the trike rear end first.  LOL

Stephan, please keep us posted as to how you are progressing and good luck.

Jim Sparks

What shall I say? If i hadnd't seen a video where someone perfectly
rides a python, i woudn't believe its rideable at all.

Stephan,

now it's time to tell you the truth: The Python project is nothing
more than an internet hoax and everything is faked. Be brave and
try to face the reality ...

I am willing to believe that after my first experience ...
OK, I?m not too disappointed by the results of the day. I knew that it wouldn?t be easy. I thought it would be helpful, I had a Flevo-Trike before. I learned to steer the Flevo by using the hip. But it seems to be completely different to ride a python. I recognized the fact that it moves to the opposite side of the hip (hip to the right, python steers left). That makes it difficult. I?m thinking about a short handlebar at the front frame, like Jukka suggested in the thread "handle bar" some days ago. 
Maybe it can help to calm the pythons wild behavior.
Later i would like to use the Bar under the seat.

Stephan
