The configuration of the lights looks like the original Enterprise from Star Trek....
wow. never seen that before.
He built that back in the late 70s. I have seen it around San Diego many times, though not recently.
Here is the website. Star Trike
Thanks for the link Ifics - fascinating!
Felicia,
I remember seeing The Star Trike in the early 90's, probably in downtown.
Very snappy!

I thought that was the OB Spaceman, but apparently he's been dead for a while.
Expat, funny you mention OB Spaceman because I starting thinking about other SD "characters" and Spaceman came to mind. I have a special "ticket" from him...can't remember what it gets me though.
His name is Loch David Crane, he used to always run for mayor, and that's the Star Trike. I think he does magic shows dressed as Santa? He's always in parades, a total SD character.
Yup, Locke is always running for Mayor, and he is a magician of great caring. He also lives right up the street. :) And look, right above my note is another thinking just the same.
i used to see the star trike drive by my apartment on voltaire in OB all the time. he has more than one of those contraptions.
I used to think that Loch David Crane was just another colorful part of open-minded Ocean Beach. I was disturbed to discover that he is a hateful proponent of Prop 8.
