  1. And what about all the different "twangs" in your language :rasberry:
  2. Brian-- I can't ride in a small economic car I can get in the car, but can't get out because of stiff leg! Vehicle is too low for me to push up-and stand up. Have made shoulders' worse trying to do that. Thankfully my car is an all wheel drive Ford Escape -- which has higher seat. So something similar to this is all I can travel in. (sorry) Focus is on getting us there............ but I would LOVE to fulfill my U.S. dream trip AND repay Alan a little for the past three years of crap we've been through. But if we can't find the funds, a trip for MD is still amazing!!
  3. Sent you a PM Margaret.
  4. Nope, nope, nope and Nope!!!!!!!:crying: Have been looking at trike rental options most of the day...and they aren't suitable for me and my gammy leg:yikes: And way too expensive! So the only option is to ship my quike over:doh: GetRouted.com.au would ship my bike from Sydney for $AU 4750 including shipping and marine insurance, all customs clearances, and loading and unloading both ends. They can also organise rider insurance for us. Would ship at end of May 2011 for arrival in Portland, Oregon 12th July 2011. THE PLAN: Quickstep would ride quike over to Sydney and I would fly over with our luggage. Leave quike at shipping depot. Fly to MD from Sydney. Then fly, or take train to Oregon for bike pick up on 12th July 2011............continue the trip and be back to ship bike by 19th September 2011. Sounds like a right bleedin' shermozzle, don't it? I'm so sorry but my disabilities make it hard for me to ride a lot of bikes/trikes.
  5. Hey, can ya get him to come over and do one of me and my Quike?
  6. thanks for the laugh......woof, woof
  7. Great!! Use one all the time:thumbsup2:
  8. For all you wonderful people who are trying to get us to the U.S.A. for MD 2011....I would like to share with you the dream I have had for years', and how we planned to achieve it. The Dream: To ship the bike over, purchase a trailer for gear, and do a riding tour of the U.S. for three months. Changed to: When the insurance claim comes through we would ship the trike, which is kitted out for my bad leg (and do the tour) Purchase a trailer to carry our gear, and my wheelchair....then donate it to VentureRiders.org. when we left. VR.org: Our VR family are now trying to get us to MD for 2011. So we are hoping we might combine the two efforts! *** My solicitor has told us she will be presenting everything for claim around September? So, hopefully by the time we would be due to leave for the states the claim would have been settled (6/7 months) and we could contribute and re-pay everyone's generosity. We then talked about hiring a trike over there, instead of a vehicle. As long as the engine doesn't stick out at the side too much!! no room for leg and I could fit highway pegs to it we thought that it would be more fun. So Bryan 52577....we like your thinking Mini Muffin....... GOD BLESS you for caring so much VR.org........ Luv Ya

  18. Haven't been on 'puter most of the week. Couldn't figure out why I couldn't get the dang thing to even turn on:bang head: We tried everything...pulling cords out, then re-connecting eveything -- except the plug in the computer-safe power board. Quickstep finally decides to try it in another spot on the board, and HEY PRESTO! we have lift-off :happy65:Powerboard decided to blow one of the five plug in's and as red light indicated it was working Quickstep ended up saying "If brains were roses, mine would smell real sweet"
