Geez, not much in the way for trikers in Soaring in Australia.
Being a newbie to this sport I was disappointed about the lack of trike articles in this magazine.
Then I remembered a famous quote I once
read, “Why doesn’t somebody do something about it? Then I realised that I was somebody.

I like the look of
that!
That’s what I thought when I
saw the idyllic scene of two trikes
soaring over my head in the lush
green, hilly paddocks of rural
Gingin, Western Australia last

I’d tried hang gliding in NSW
back in the 80s - brief as it was, I
had managed to soar over some of
the cliff tops near Newcastle.
When I left this ideal hang gliding
region to return to WA it all became but a memory.
New job, add
a couple of kids and time just
flies.
