The Surrey has arrived

Thanks to the efforts of Kirby Kelbaugh, we purchased a used Surrey (also known as a quadricycle that   four people can pedal, but can carry at least six people). Kirby traveled to Ocean City to pick up the cycle at Dandy Don's bike rentals. Here he is on a test drive at UMBC a few minutes after we unloaded the Surrey from the truck:
Next step: we need at least four peddlers to get up the hill and test this machine on Hilltop circle!
On Monday the UMBC Baja Team will join us to talk about modifications and attaching flotation.
Other tasks - stripping off any unnecessary components, and learning how to change a flat tire on this thing.
