I laughed when i read this and i figure tons of other people will laugh too when they see you going about town in this. However, it depends on how open minded you are and how much of a thick skin you've got. I know you to be an open minded fella Seun and if anyone is going to try this, it would be you. You should know that its no chick magnet though. . .

Seun:

Teacher200 is right; a three-wheeler is not good for avoiding traffic hold-ups. But then, weaving through heavy Lagos traffic with your motorcycle is liable to get you killed. So maybe that's more of an advantage?

Also, I happen to live outside Lagos. In my town bad roads are more of a problem than traffic: you can take shortcuts. For this, I need a vehicle that can navigate potholes, puddles, shallow gutters, roads with big stones, etc.

spikedcylinder is also right; it's not a chick magnet. Wait a minute, what if I paint it black?

@hafees: hmm, food for thought. Thanks for sharing.

Have u considered your video gadgets getting soaked, snow falling rains, approaching trailers, whirlwinds. Seun you are better off as a respected hero, don't think Nairalanders would appreciate    a dead hero.

ibkaye:

Oh please, what will that do!?  

oyb:

it will make it nightkeke (remember kit?)


unless you can love-vendor it out (
to protect you from rain,
to protect you from direct tout/police/lastma/area boy assess ( one of the best things about air conditioning and central locking, and provide security)
to provide security- what do you do with anything you're carrying - it has no boot.

most importanatly, the vehicle will be strictly utilitarian-
as far as i know u can't install an mp3 player and speakers on it - and you can't take chicks out on dates with em- at least not naija chicks- unless the media suddenly decides that three wheelers are cool.

oyb:

don't count on that - remember the pepsi truck/puff daddy ad?
