A little about the Kansas Trikers Organization

We are a group of triking enthusiasts that recently formed on May 17th 2025. A small group of 14 trikers met at Buffs Bar and Grill, in Emporia.

Trikers and their Trikes

The brotherhood of trikers began better than 35-40 years ago, when a bunch of guys began converting VW cars into trikes. Other trikes were later being built using others resources such as V8 engines etc. And from that time, interest in trikes has continually increased and now today many manufacturers has joined in producing quite a variety of trikes to include the growing popularity of trikes with two wheels in front and have taken the lead in trike sales. So today, where ever there is a triking event, one will see many different styles & types of trikes, from the ones that are built by individuals to include those that are bought from dealers. And, they are all, without question, a lot fun to ride. But also take notice that trikes are only a part of this excitement, the greater adventure is realized in our "family of trikers" that clearly defines the addition of our chosen family. And the personalities that enclose this group of enthusiasts are numerous. And enclosed within these personalities is found the "richness of our brotherhood" that draw us all together, as family, a family of trikers, experiencing that warm and most rewarding fellowship, each and every time we get together. Bottom line, were exciting and we're contagious!


The Kansas Trikers Organization

The Kansas BTW puts on one major event each year. This annual event is put on by the Kansas chapters and other members that's spread across the state. This event, has now relocated back to Camp Alexander. (check "Events" for details). The purpose for this annual event is to unite all Kansas members and to also get acquainted with other BTW members from other states that take in this event. Having that said, many of the BTW members reciprocate with other neighboring state & chapter events.




Kansas Trikers Organization:

Currently the Kansas Trikers Organization has two established groups, one at Ottawa and the other is established in the Wichita vicinity, East Central Kansas (ECKS) trikers meets weekly for lunch at various places and the Open Prairie Trikers (OPT) does monthly weekly dining and various rides.

The Brothers of the Thrid Wheel, (BTW) was an international triking organization and was desolved on April 10th, 2025

The Kansas members had no control in the desision of desolving the BTW but wanted to continue trikeing together so a new organization was created, The Kansas Trikers Organization. Therefore this website is being re-constructed to accomidate our newly organized Kansas Trikers. Please check back for updates, for it will take a little while to get this website reconstructed. Thank you for your patience!!
