ABSTRACT:
A three-wheeled exercise vehicle includes an "L" shaped frame, a pivot about which the frame pivots as the vehicle is used by an exerciser, pedals for moving the vehicle from place to place and steering wheels that turn as the frame pivots. The user steers the exercise vehicle by leaning in a direction at an angle to the direction of movement of the exercise vehicle, wherein at least one steering wheel turns an amount related to said leaning about an axis substantially perpendicular to the horizontal. To drive straight, the user pedals the vehicle and shifts weight from the upper body to compensate for his automatic shifting of weight as he or she pedels, whereby an operator using the exercise vehicle while exercising must exercise more than one portion of the exerciser's body to both move said pedals and to control said pivoting.
