I have 3 trikes, 2 with motors. The 2 with motors stay on the floor, the expedition will go on a table or shelf over the other 2.

Aw, dang. I wish I'd known about the quad cover while I was out visiting you! Could have saved on shipping! Thanks for this guide. The point about trike shoppers taking measurements to bring to the store with them is good. I'd add that anyone doing cycle advocacy should be advocating for secure accessible cycle infrastructure at apartments, schools, and workplaces. Too many rack installations are inaccessible to trikes, handcycles, and quads.

Additional trike storage: Flip aft the 6-inch bracket at top rear of Hase seat. Rotate Hase vertical. No lifting off of floor! Works for E-assist too.

I have spent a good amount of time looking for a proper durable weatherproof cover made for my Expedition For the last 3 years, my 16-year-old Catrike Expedition has lived in the back of my truck. It fits nicely both nose in, with tailgate down, or tail in tailgate up. During rainy or snowy weather, I use a thick weather proofed canvas two bike cover from Amazon. The first one lasted two years, even with two water proofing treatments. When traveling, I have a bungee cord system that keeps this cover from ballooning. Even though my system works pretty well. I'd love to see someone develop a durable recumbent trike tarp.

Thanks for video on storing trikes. Have you reported on trailers to transport trikes?

I store my trike inside my SUV. Of course, I have some assembly/disassembly to do, but that takes about 20 minutes each time. ( I compensate that 20 minutes X 2 = 40 - 45 minutes by riding an extra 2 hours.) I keep both batteries inside the apartment (I don't go for speed but for distance). Just got new lights - the old ones were wearing out.

I keep my 559 inside my ID.4, so all I have to do is attach the bags and ride. If I need the car for something else I can fold the trike and it will fit on the landing just inside my front door. I have a Rover with hub issues that lives in my basement. The door isn’t wide enough and it’s a major production to get it in or out. If I ever replace that door I want a wider one so both trikes could spend time hanging on that wall bracket off the floor

Dont have mine yet but id pull the boom, (mine has no motor, and is a 1x) so all id have to do is bag the loose chain. Flip it over and swing rear wheel up. Fasten it to a i bolt threaed into the 2x4 at the top of the wall letting the front tires support the bike. Poof its done. If wifies doesent like the look of it buy a curtin rod and cheap curtins of her liking to cocoel the bike.
