Cruising the Monterey Bay Coastal Trail on a Trikke CV

Sally_Weymouth_rides_trikke-280

On a lovely May Friday, my wife, Sally and I parked our car at the north end of the Monterey Bay Coastal Trail and set off on a section of the trail we had not been on before. On the map we started at the intersection of Lapis and Del Monte. The trail starts out a bit further north but it is on a road without a bike lane and the surface did not look friendly for our first time on this section that … [Read more...]

Buellton Hill Endurance Trikke Ride 2013 Preview

Claudio Pagan rides Trikke

The Buellton Hill Endurance Ride starts right out the backdoor of Trikke Tech, Inc. in Buellton, California. Many a ride has been made on this route to test Trikkes to see how they hold up on the climbing and carving curves of Santa Rosa Road from Highway 101 to Highway 1. The round trip is almost 40 miles of differing road surface, hills and dales. The views are of pastoral farm scenes of … [Read more...]

More Trikke fun on the streets of San Francisco

Rod Prime and Lily on Trikkes

On March 10, the first Sunday Streets San Francisco of the season was held along The Embarcadero. Mark Simons and Barbara Mooy met Sally and I at the parking lot for AT&T Park, home of our World Series Champion San Francisco Giants, then proceeded along The Embarcadero toward Fisherman's Wharf to the north. We rode around Will Mays Plaza and then went north following a bicycle powered music … [Read more...]

Sisterhood of the traveling Trikke gals

Wanda Turner on Trikke

The fog hadn't lifted yet when I met them in Marina, Calif., just down the road from Monterey. I had never ridden with either lady, so I asked what they preferred in the way of a trail. They opted for a nice, level trail for their first Monterey Bay Coastal Trail experience and we were off, me, Jeri Thompson, fellow TrikkeWorld blogger, and Wanda Turner, devoted carver — two Southern … [Read more...]

Trikke Skki snow carving season winding to a close [video]

Trikke Skki rider skies on snow

As the Trikke Skki season comes to a close, I am heartened to know that Sierra-At-Tahoe is on the map as a go to resort for Trikke Skki riders. With one of the longest green runs around at 2.5 miles long you can really rack up some miles on the slopes. The folks at Sierra are really interested in the Trikke Skki and are always asking when they can rent one. Hopefully we can get something going … [Read more...]

‘Buzzing’ around Sierra-at-Tahoe on Trikke Skki’s [video]

Buzz Harris

On March 8th, my wife, Sally and I got up super early to drive to Sierra-at-Tahoe Skki Resort near South Lake Tahoe. We left a bit before 5 o'clock so as to miss the morning rush hour and arrive as close to the 9 o'clock opening time for the resort. We managed to arrive just before 9, bought our tickets and met Buzz Harris, Certified Trikke Trainer from Reno for a great day of Trikke Skking. We … [Read more...]

Ann Pirone, Trikke Academy hostess with the mostest [videos]

Gildo Beleski and Ann Pirone pose for photo.

More 'Douguss Amonguss' clips from the National Trikke Skki Inn. The 2013 National Trikke Skki Inn probably wouldn’t have happened without the valiant efforts of Ann Pirone, Trikke Academy coordinator and heroine to all Certified Trikke Trainers and Riding Skkool attendees. And still, Ann wasn't able to hit the slopes as often on the count of caring for her toddler son, picking up folks at … [Read more...]

When Douguss was Amonguss the CEO of Trikke Tech at the 2013 Skki Inn. Picture it: Skki Inn 2013, Hoodoo Ski Area, Oregon, the morning before the Trikke Skki Grand Prixx. Johnny Pone and I decided to try a few runs off piste. Johnny Pone is also known as John Simpson, who's also known as Trikke Tech CEO. Off piste means existing or taking place on snow that has not been compacted into … [Read more...]

When a man wears a cape: Roger Wildermuth goes ‘flying’ on Trikke Skki [video]

Roger Wildermuth rides Trikke Skki

Roger Wildermuth of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, has been to the Skki Inn nearly every year since it began. He has a thing for zebra prints and has covered his Trikke Skki in a zebra stripe pattern from the steering column to the Skki blades. Each Skki Inn, Roger likes to take out his cape and get some footage of himself "flying" the cape. After this year's Skki Inn, Roger stayed an extra day and … [Read more...]

Amazing race 2: Trikke Skki Giant Slalom at Skki Inn 2013 [video]

John Simpson rides Trikke Skki

Super Bowl Sunday was the last day of Skki Inn 2013, and also the day of the Trikke Skki Giant Slalom Race at Oregon's Hoodoo Skki Area. It was quite a different experience than the previous day's Trikke Skki Grand Prixx. The Giant Slalom course is south facing and tends to get warm and soft in the afternoon sun. I wouldn't mind a steeper and faster course, but I was able to lower my time by … [Read more...]
