I'm eying one of these trikes as my next big purchase. I've been itching to get back out on the bike trail and I'll need a trike. But the problem with most trikes? They are huge and won't fit into our tiny crossover. I'd rather not buy a bike that costs over $30K (bike + pickup).
This one, designed by Evolve Trikes out of Australia (http://evolvetrikes.com/index.html), folds super compactly and is not too heavy for a three wheeler (36 lbs; many are 50+ lbs).

My only debate: my legs last only so long. My arms can go a lot longer, so an arm cycle might take me farther. But I need to keep working out my legs, so I'm leaning toward foot powered. If I could rent or borrow a trike in ABQ, that would make the decision easier....
