This weekend is the Toyota Grand Prix. It is happening about one mile away. And it seems unusually quiet. Friday was the first "Free Friday" I have ever attended, and it was interesting, for a moment. All the vendors were selling food or race-emblazoned clothing. Oh, and Tacate.Inside the convention center was a track set up for bike stunts. We got there in time to see some amazing flips, high jumps and other high jinks.
I can't help wondering where Trikke is this weekend. I think a Trikke exhibit is missing from this expo.
Where are the guys with their Trikkes all set up waiting for these visitors from around the country to ask the questions I am asked constantly on the street. If Trikke wants to go big, this world wide event seems to be a good place to continue.
If Trikke had been at this event, I would have brought that excitement home with me. I would be talking about it around the water cooler on Monday. I would have been checking out the Trikke.com sites around the "www". And I would start the process of buying and learning how to capture that Trikke Moment, when I know I've got the carve down.
Oh, wait, I do have a Trikke, and I have done all those things in the last paragraph already! Well I never talked about it around a water cooler, not yet anyway. If I did, I would say it is the best invention yet, except for fire of course. Oh, and the wheel. Three wheels exactly. Carve Diem!
