Usually in March and again in November (State Titles). But my partner and I travel to the mainland to race a fair bit. Going to 2012 Australian Titles at Corowa NSW at Easter. Time I went a put a scare among them.

There's a couple of thing I need to mention that are 'basics'. 1) Lube and 2) Bearings. Don't get these right and your not going to get close to Bessy. Want to know more? just ask...trikes

Have a look here Dain http://www.facebook.com/?ref=hp#!/pages/Southern-Tasmania-Billycart-Group/328971924254 The biggest aero problem you have is that your so close to the proximity of the ground. Bessy has that too. I've raced against HPV's that were built / shaped like what you have and...
