    Fortunately, no car came because you always drove on the wrong side ;-). Cool toy!

      I could not see anything through Julie anyway. This took almost a year to design and build. It seems than I need to improve the steering a lot but this is solid. A trailer fitting allows me now to collect manure from the local stables for my next project - mushroom farming! Far more interesting than electronics :) Best regards

      @@dicktonyboy Wow! Cool project. But probably optimal for your humid weather ;-)
      I asked for "Italian" weather for after my retirement, and I got it: 28.5 degrees last week. So I am happy. But nothing for mushrooms, of course.
      Just one question: Why do you need to steer? She has the better view. Maybe a thought for version 2.0.

      @@AndreasSpiess Thanks for your comments Andreas.
      So we can now blame global warming on your wishes for the weather AND your continued use of an ICE bike!
      As for the remainder of the question, I'll avoid any misogynistic response as to who holds the reins in our relationship (and any comment about video proof of the existence of my wife) and also say we were just mucking about.
      The design is only a single seater but tough. It's version 1. The braking is unbalanced and very fierce and the steering arms are far too short - requiring imminent modification. I'm also looking at fitting a motorbike steering damper.
