 My New Trike
After the first test ride on my MeetOne Tour Dual Etrike, I have some initial observations. Practicing handling techniques is essential for a more confident operation.

There is a learning curve with leaning into turns. Slower is safer when attempting tight maneuvers, and leaning forward and into the turn helps!

Another safety practice to learn is to set at least one of the parking brake levers when mounting or dismounting, which will minimize uncontrolled rolling.

When pushing the Trike, be aware of your stance! It is easy to roll a rear wheel over your toes.
