long time no see. Came here to read older posts, with a hope of finding something that I've missed ... fat trike, that's news to me! Was it like a recumbent bike with laid-back pedaling position or like a typical trike with two rear wheels plus basket?
It was a typical trike but with fat wheels, probably 4" tires. I don't remember if it had a basket. I just did a search for 'fat trike photos' and there are a variety of them. There are recumbents, too. The only use I can see for them is in the snow so you can't fall off if it slides on the ice. Ride one on the beach? Maybe on hard sand but pushing three fat wheels through soft sand is going to be quite a workout.
If I knew how to ride a bike properly, I'd do it every time.
