Technically would it even be illegal? How does the law differentiate between a bicycle and a tricycle? Wheel size? Height of rider? Who knows...not like they could catch me on a modded trike anyways lol! :screwy:

^^ I like your idea of building your own. Nothing going on at my shop so this might be a good project.

I'm all for it, but I say we hit up 180 or some tighter roads around Dahlonega 129 isn't tight enough and is too highly traveled. BTW I am wearing my motorcycle leathers lol :D

BTW I am wearing my motorcycle leathers lol :DThere's only one section of 180 that I think would be steep enough with good turns, that would be starting at wolf pen gap headed towards Suches with about a dozen decent turns before it levels out at the passing lane.
How about a one time sprint race down the back side of Crown Mtn. from the gas station past Pizza Hut to the river? I can foresee bearings being shot and wheels falling off before the old chevy dealership :D

Lol, that part of crown only has like two FAST turns. I'd be down for whatever lol. There are plenty of places to go :D

Someone would die. lol!

Its North Georgia... there are a lot of roads that would be good. All that is needed is to find the smaller roads that have less traffic and steeper with more turns.
What would everyone use for protection? Someone already mentioned leathers. I'm thinking full motocross gear just minus the boots.

found out more about which big wheels other people found out work really well. Seems that the Huffy Slider is the best. I'm definately going to bend up some tubing and make my own. I dont know quite yet what i can use for a front fork without making my own. the front wheel will be a 20" BMX with a freecoaster for the hub. Still dont know how that will be driven might make just a down hill specific using pegs for foot rest

I want to make a video just like the one linked but with more people, steeper and bigger hill, and harder turns...if someone doesn't get hurt then we haven't accomplished anything! :doh:
