Great day for me with the start of our new trike hanger at Morning Star Airfield, the home of the Western Cape Microlight Club in Cape Town. Our hanger will soon be home to six trikes, cant wait to move in.

Will post another few pics as progress continues.

Great news for 'Free to Adventure' and adventure triking around the world. We have been nominated as ‘explorer of the week” on Nat Geo Adventure TV! For more check out http://www.natgeoadventure.tv.
