Re: trikes love water (multi camera experiment)

Makes me wonder, but doubt, if a tricycle could hydroplane like a taildragger. With the weight being so far forward of the main gear, it would probably be too risky to find out.

I'm sure you could, but finding out what it takes would be the hard part. I'll leave that experiment for someone else #-o
