Re: Aha, the legendary ICE customer service.
ICE have great customer service,just one thing has peeved me from my last purchase from them.
I bought the new hardshell seat for the S and although I already had the compatable mounting kit,I was informed I had to buy the seat with the VTX kit which was absolutely no use to me and I had to pay around £40 for the privalege.

5. Dress code For health and safety reasons, it is an absolute condition of participation that a helmet is worn.
5.2 Brompton Sprint & Meander There is no dress code.
I can assure you the old boy on the brompton I was chatting with last Sunday who was wearing a cycling cap
And who is attending will not be wearing one.

From 'The Rules' which apply to all 3 Brompton events:5. Dress code For health and safety reasons, it is an absolute condition of participation that a helmet is worn.
Ignoring the questionable benefits of plastic hats, one of the joys of 3 wheels for me is the vastly reduced interest of 'concerned parties' at what I choose, or not, to wear on my head.
Pity really, as it might have made a 'grand trike day out' for me (especially as 'local produce' might include liquid refreshments), living within reasonable cycling distance of Goodwood.
Excellent - wear the helmet on your elbow.

£410 for the grp

Re: Trike routing limitations and compensation
I kept bumping into the same woman out riding her horse after the second time she asked me if her horse
Could come over and sniff my trike,after that the horse had zero problems with my trike,
When I rode it flagged even the local disabled riding club horses(which are so timid)freaked out.
