I love to cycle but because of balance problems I had to get or three wheel bike or give it up. I got the 3-wheeler and I can go everywhere that a 2 wheel bike can go. I often go to a park or just 2 blocks over the desert starts and it can be a beautiful place when you are out there on a bike. You have to watch out for the soft sand but much of the desert is great for biking (watch out for scorpions and rattlers, though).
