I really like that first one. That's somewhat the design I'm thinking of for my own reverse trike, except I was thinking about fairing in the wheels, too, since it's not possible for me to use really thin ones. They'd have to be mountain-bike-ish wheels, because of the types of roads and terrain I'd be using it on at speed.

I'd be perfectly happy with 40-45 MPH, since it's much faster than walking, and nobody says anything about bikes on the streets out here, since there's really no other place to ride them.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
