TRIKKE
INSTRUCTOR: John Simpson
Discover a whole new way to get yourself around campus on an amazing
three-wheeled vehicle, the Trikke Carving Vehicle (“CV”).
This green machine can reach up to 18mph on flat ground completely powered
by you. And it is a Blast! Each class will give a low impact, highly
effective full-body workout producing balance, endurance, strength,
and agility. Riding a Trikke CV is a little like riding a bike and roller
skating at the same time. By practicing the basic techniques of shifting
your weight, leaning the vehicle from side to side and carving turns,
you’ll be climbing hills and taking long endurance rides in no
time. This class is designed for people with no experience. Additional
required equipment includes a helmet and athletic shoes (no flip-flops
please). Suggested equipment includes gloves and knee pads. You will
receive your Trikke carving vehicle the first night of class. Please
bring a credit card for a $35.00 deposit on your Trikke CV. This will
allow you to use it for 8 weeks and then return it at the end of class!
