Day 262: Tricycle

A domestic mode of transportation.  Like the jeepney, these little vehicle is a byproduct of the Filipino ingenuity. To accommodate more people, why not put a sidecar to a motorcycle and charge folks for riding it?  I personally find it a brilliant idea.

    @Dianne: Lately, nakakapag-tryc na lang ako kapag mag-gro-grocery. :/

    @Pink: Yep. Nakakakita din ako sa ibang lugar pero hindi tulad dito na public mode of transportation talaga. :D

    I don't think I've ever ridden one of these. Locally our motorelas have their bodies on the back eh.

    @Gwacie: Really? Wala nung sidecar? That's interesting. The ones I saw in Davao naman looked like black mushrooms. Uber cute! :D

    Sis samen sa province ito din main mode of transportation. We used to own one when I was young pero binenta din agad ng Papa ko. Naglolokohan pa nga kami lagi ni hubby na pano daw pag nagka-tricycle dito sa Doha. Haha.. Hindi naman pwede at mainit dito kahit yung hangin. Sabi namin lalagyan ng aircon yung loob. Haha :)

    Ito pala recently ko lang nalaman since naging topic nga recently and tricycles dito sa bahay. Samen kc sa province, uso na nilalagay yung name ng family members sa tricyle. Usually sa likod nakalagay yung family name like example Garcia Family. Then sa harap yung names ng mga anak usually and wife. Mas common na names lang ng mga anak pero pag may space pa, nilalagay na din name ng wife. Dun sa tricycle na we owned before, nilagyan din names namin. Kina hubby sa Pangasinan, ganon din daw. We thought it was a common practice pero we leanrned na hindi pala kasi lahat ng kasama namin dito sa bahay hindi alam na ginagawa yun. They're from Quirino, Mindoro and Makati. So nagulat sila na samen eh may names nga daw. :)

    @Joanne: Haha... Sa ibang provinces nga ganun din. Pati sa jeep. Yun nga yung nakakatuwa dun. Sa city, hindi ko masyadong nakikita yung ganun.

    Ang kulit kung diyan kayo mag-tricycle tapo naka-aircon pa. Kamusta kaya yun. LOL
