Newest Family Member - Rans Stratus XP






So...a few weeks ago I posted the Catrike for sale on Craigs list. I loved the Baron, it was a great trike and a joy to ride, but a quest for speed and distance came over me.
The second person who emailed me about the Catrike was also a chef and also owned a bike store. So after many, many emails we made a deal for a trade.

My NEW Rans Stratus XP for my 8 month old Catrike Expedition.

Today was the first day out on the "Blue Bomber". and LOVED IT!! Climbs much better than the trike and is much quicker. The Rans is almost 8' long and you can barely feel it under you. You can feel the speed at about 25 miles an hour and its easy to see where a fairing would come into play. Can't wait for spring!!!
