    Sadly, how fast you can go is limited by the terrain you can find. The largest area I know of around Homer are the flats out toward the head of Kachemak Bay. Be careful, they aren't flat; watch for creeks and soft spots.

    About 40-45 on a good day for me. But a big red isn't a race trike, and it never will be.


    For what it was made for, a Big Red is the best of the best, for what its not made for, it's a big slow tank, but a tank none the less.
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.
