  1. Okay...

    In May is Nathan's school prom. So, thinking of
    *possibilities* of transport to & from said prom... anyone
    know of anyone/organisation that does rickshaw hire that
    would either come out to deepest rural Norfolk, or where I
    could hire a rickshaw for the duration so I, errr, Vernon,
    can be rickshaw slave for an evening???

    Just ideas at this stage.

    Cheers, helen s

    That sounds ike fun. You could contact Cycles Maximus who
    have supplied many users - they may give you a lead.

    cyclesmaximus.comcyclesmaximus.com

    Alternatively, as the easten regions are well known for
    their barrows, how about joining two together, take the
    front wheel out of the rear one and attach to the rear axle
    of the front machine for a five wheeled 'trike'. I did that
    with a friend once and we clocked a 28 minute 10 mile TT.

    A quick Google indicated that a company called Fantoosh had
    a brace of rickshaws in Dereham, their web site is down -
    does the company still exist?

    Why not a horse and carriage?

    Surely there is plenty of scope for such around Norfolk?

    You could try D-Tek over Ely way, he does lots of not yer
    run of the mill cycles. Specialist in recumbents, but you
    never know.

    If at first you don't succeed... Skydiving is probably not
    the sport for you.

    Helen,

    There was a Ricshaw taxi service in Gt Yarmouth a few years
    ago, thoughthe owner packed up and moved to Canada. I don't
    know what happened to the machine, it may still be around
    the Yarmouth area. Try speaking to some of the Gt Yarmouth
    CC people, they may know something, otherwise I could lone
    you a tandem.

    Eeee lad, I didn't spot that one! Indeed there is a shop
    called Fantoosh, but if they've any rickshaws, they haven't
    had them out and about in Dereham. I shall invstigate
    during the week.

    *Thanks*

    First possibility is a rickshaw due to cycling interest.

    Thanks Pete. Will keep that in mind. Not sure if he'd like
    the tandem though - but it's a very kind offer all the same.
    The idea of the rickshaw is that it's suitably whacky :-)
