Abstract
A cycle (1) for use by a rider (11) over a terrain surface (36). The cycle (1) includes a frame (2) having front (3) and rear (4) portions; a seat (13); a front wheel (5) rotatable about a primary axis (17) and attached to a steering member (7); a steering mechanism (8) coupled to the steering member (7); a rear wheel (6), rotatably attached to the rear frame portion (4); a drive mechanism (21 or 88) operatively coupled to the front (5) and/or rear (6) wheel; at least one footrest (12, 92) on the front wheel (5). The steering member (7) is pivotally attached to the front frame portion (3) for rotation about a secondary axis (15) orthogonal to the primary axis (17). The cycle (1) is configured such that a rider (11) can be seated on the seat (13) in operative contact with the steering mechanism (7) when the cycle (1) is in motion, while permitting both feet of the seated rider (11) to reach the terrain surface (36) when the cycle (1) is stationary.
