  1. I'm looking for plans to build a 4 wheeler (get my parents some exercise ). If any one knows of a plan set or good web site could you please let me know.
    Thanks:
    😄

    Look into the recumbent adult trikes: many makes and models available, many dealers, very stable,
    lighter and easier to pedal. My 82y.o. father has advanced Parkinsons Disease, can barely walk,
    rides just fine! And the trike is so much fun to ride that I often steal it from him for
    neighborhood cruising.

    An upright tandem trike would probably be less difficult and cheaper to source. Very popular with
    mature cyclists in the UK.

    If fast cornering ability is less important than being able to easily get on and off the trike, the
    Sun EZ-3 [1] can be had for less than $800 (US).
