Trike on Order !!

Comments made on BROL site...

Hey ! Finally Ordered, after finding a shop close enough that my Sharon would take me to go get it. Wanted Utahtrikes settled on Winter Garden Wheelworks.

Did I not see where someone had a trunk mount bike rack that I could use to haul my Catrike back with? Please help me find a rack for a Toyota Camry... NO harm or Mods to the Camry is a must!

3 or 4 weeks now! Whew! This is tough!!

Thanks Guys... ~April 07 2009 10:50am

Dennis confirmed the order: 1 Catrike Black Expedition (CBE), just happen to have a few shirts that say "CBE"... Alright! 3/4 weeks to go that is 21 to 28 days. That is 376 hours left - awake just waiting.... maybe I could sleep longer... except that darn sun keeps waking me up! Oh the agony of it all! How did you all handle this???

Yes "Onyx" has been ordered (Catrike Black Expedition - CBE), I can't wait to go get her, she is only 450 miles away. Dennis promised to email me and send pictures while she is getting fitted out. Can't wait to share her serial number with you all. You all have been very kind to me while I waited and waited for my settlement. Can't believe I did it... my family can't either BOY I could have bought a couple old cars... But I am still waiting on my disability with Social Security, my lawyer says it just takes a lot of time... tick, tick, tick... Oh well so I will be wrapped up in "Onyx" and will not worry about no stinking income... Oh have I gone mad of what... I still did to eat and sleep... and less eat. Thomas help me out... I know your life has changed a lot right... Told Dennis that I expected "Onyx" to look just as pretty as "Silk" - He said "Oh the Batman trike! that trike is loaded." Hope Dennis calls me around the 1st of May... have a birthday girl on the 7th - would hate to miss the party. Okay later guys...

I am so excited I have wanted this for so long... I even thought I would be able to buy it from Ashley at Utahtrikes... He knows trikes! If I had gotten just a little bit more I could have made the trip to Utah all by myself... My family really thinks I have gone off the deep end buying this trike... at least for now they are still willing to take me to Florida... But if ya don't hear from me and I drop off the map it is THEM they took me away and locked me up!

So I didn't get to go to Utah, hope Ashley and crew are glad that I at least got to order my trike, even if they did not get a piece of my pie. I hope Dennis and Wheelworks can do as good a job on my trike as Utahtrikes has done with others.

All day has gone by and no word on "Onyx"'s condition, hope she is okay, don't they know how painful this waiting is. Looking at the timer and I swear it has not moved much... 26 days 14 hours and 56 minutes and it just counts down so darn slow !!! Checked my email nothing.... Later guys...

Dennis said - Hey Andy, most everything is ordered. Once I get shipping conformations I’ll be able to get you an ETA. ~10:51am April 10th 2009.

Getting Closer... to the purchase

Things are not going  smoothly as I wish. But, I am getting there.  I have purchased my GPS - I settled on the Garmin GPSmap 60CSx and I have my new camera - a Samsung F34,  a step up from the the Samsung I was looking at. This one can take pictures as well. So I can record by adventure to purchase and setup my trike. I also have planned my trip on the GPS and am ready for anything. 

My family has urged me to buy my trike closer to home than Utah. Since they are taking me to the place to purchase and bring me back - I could only concede to them.  I am looking to go to Florida to purchase my trike, just about where the Catrike's are manufactuered in Winter Garden, Florida. I have shot my parts list to them and have had one email back to me, I have called them and voiced my concern about the about of time they said it would take to get all the parts to put my trike together. I suggested using parts they did have locally to speed things up.  So It looks like a minium of 3 three weeks  right down.  Later...
