Sipke Havinga agrees. He was even in a vlog by Enzo Knol. “A while ago we drove to Leeuwarden. Then I was overtaken by a more than large car with a lady with a gigantic telephoto lens in front of her face. It is of course more common that you are filmed and photographed. Then in the evening I got a app from a friend who said I was in Enzo Knol’s vlog. I thought that was quite unbelievable, but I looked it up anyway. It was indeed correct. Enzo Knol thought the trike was very cool.”
The friends got to know each other through the CS-Riders foundation. “We take rides with children who have had a difficult time,” says Kuiken. “That’s how we got to know each other and that’s how the friendship grew”, Havinga adds. “I don’t think we’ll let that go anymore, it’s still too much fun.”
And so the group gets on the trike for a week of vacation. Now that they go on holiday this way, Kuiken doesn’t want anything else. “We have been abroad, by plane, but that doesn’t appeal to me anymore. This is our life.”
