Catrike

Along the commute
The tricycle is fun to ride.

  Riding this thing is a joy.  It seems effortless at times, yet, at the same time, exhilarating.  It is odd to be so mentally relaxed and to feel an adrenaline rush at the same time.  I suspect that it is a feeling you can only get on a trike.  The brain is not occupied with staying balanced, and is free to wander.

  I have been riding the tricycle to work.  The trike makes a nice commuter machine.  
This style of tricycle, with two wheels in front and one in back, is known as a 'tadpole'.  I like its ability to carry large panniers, and its low gearing.  Thanks to the small, 18" wheels, it has good low gears for hill-climbing.
