I rode and finished one of California's the toughest double centuries on my Catrike 700. The first trike ever to do it.

Slower than on your upright? Okay, a 700 is most natural when flying along smooth, level surfaces. Great shots of you at 3:43; 8:50; and, 10:30 (steep climb).

Chip seal want a problem for comfort but it is still a slow surface for those little 16" wheels.
