# tricycle-mechanical-design

Design of a highly experimental recumbent tricycle, not software at all.

![Early sketch of the tricycle](tricycle-2b-export.svg)

## Status

Still at a very preliminary, pre-prototype stage. Work is documented [here](https://www.journeyman.cc/blog/tags-output/Tricycle/).
