Dante from Brighton

Brian from Liverpool
Brian and his daughter, Frankie, are the first borrowers of our North of England based Viking Saratoga Trike conversion. They have had it since mid-June 2015. Frankie wrote soon after, "It was a bit more challenging to cycle than we thought and we spent a long time raising the seat, lowering the seat, raising it again, and just going round and round in the car park. Given my Dad's age, there is a bit of fear on my part that because I can't see him, he might fall out! This is just a mental block that I need to get over! I think the back rest will help with my Dad's confidence and we will stick to cycling in the car park until we are more confident. Dave was lovely and stayed with us, giving us a few tips and advice until we were more confident with what we were doing. I'll send a photo as soon as we don't look completely terrified!"
