    This is the Worksman Tricycle I mentioned getting for $150 a couple of months ago in the what have you done to prep this week thread. $16.53 later this is what I have ready to go.

    From the rear


    Side view, notice the heavy frame

    I am actually looking at a 4 wheel garden cart as a trailer. And there are clips made that will attach to forks for any number of things.

    Necro post:
    from that website I posted earlier... a nice write-up, and possibly an option for those not close to their BOL.

    I know if I had to bug out home from work the first place I would hit is the local highschool to appropriate a bike.
