I drove the intrepid motor tricycle to work today and other than the ultimate destination it was a beautiful ride.

Broke 90 miles per hour for the first time on the ride home from work, more stable than I was led to believe it would be, although with the grooved pavement it did have a little bit of a greasy feeling up front

I've had mine up to 90 before. No grooved pavement. She was amazingly stable and smooth.

I gingerly approached 100mph on a very good road with no grooving and zero wind. This car generates no downforce at speed unlike just about anything on the roads these days. It becomes very sketchy and twitchy, so much so that the thought of having to use the steering for avoidance or the brakes becomes laughable.
I'll do it again but I'd rather do it on a closed track without other drivers!
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

I was greeted at the Cars & Coffee gathering in Folsom this morning by a young man who was so excited to see a M3W that he came up, shook my hand and congratulated me for bringing the MOG. He exclaimed that he had never seen one in person. Tomorrow is the All British Motoring Show at the Dixon Mayfair.
