How much does the Trike weigh?
85 lbs. For the trike to be ideal for long distance touring, you would want it to be less than 25 lbs per person, or 50 lbs total. However, short distances (under 20 miles) or in leisure biking environments, you would not notice the extra weight. As I mentioned above, we carried a car battery on Ragbrai to power speakers. When we removed the car battery we did NOT notice a difference in speed going up hills. We DID notice a speed difference when going down hills.
