There are many reasons why April and May are great months to join a trike patrol. For one, the weather is usually mild and pleasant, making it ideal for outdoor activities. The temperatures are often just right – not too hot, not too cold – and the days are getting longer, allowing for more daylight to explore.
Joining a trike patrol in April and May can be a fun and unique way to explore your local community or a new area. With mild weather, events and festivals, and a chance to connect with others, it's a great time to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. Whether you're a seasoned trike rider or just looking for a new adventure, consider joining a trike patrol in April and May. You never know where the ride will take you!
As the weather starts to warm up in April and May, many people are eager to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. For some, that means taking a walk or going for a bike ride. But for others, it's a chance to try something new and exciting – like joining a trike patrol.
In addition, many cities and towns start to host events and festivals in April and May, which can be a fun distraction for trike patrol participants. From spring festivals to food festivals, there's often something interesting to see or do along the way.
Joining a trike patrol can have many benefits, both physical and mental. For one, it's a great way to get some exercise and improve cardiovascular health. Riding a trike is a low-impact activity, making it accessible to people of all ages and abilities.
Trike patrols can also be a great way to meet new people and make friends. Many trike patrols are social events, where participants chat and laugh together as they ride. It's a chance to connect with others who share similar interests and have a fun, relaxed time.
A trike patrol is a group of people who ride tricycles, often in a coordinated and organized manner, to explore their local community or a new area. It's a fun and unique way to see the sights, get some exercise, and enjoy the outdoors. Trike patrols can be casual, social events or more structured, guided tours.
When designing, we need to be in touch with the various spaces we use. After all, we are not termites -- who live inside built matter of the walls. An architect is quite interested in knowing how the spaces are inter-related, and whether they
would work for our users. The walls come as a bye-product of having made these spaces.
TAD respects such an approach. That is why it is very easy to start designing directly in TAD itself. It is like having a scratch pad handy.
But if you think this is just a bubble diagramming too ... well, it is not. You can even create the entire model; including the built matter that is present in the building.
What it does NOT do is drafting. For that, you can easily export from TAD and use the regular CAD software that you were using earlier.
The adjoining photo shows the internal stack through the tiny row-house.
The west wall has a bit of glass blocks. It not just lights up the space
but it drives the air inside the stack. This is a intricate vertical space
that goes through the row house to provide ventilation -- all modelled
inside TAD
TAD helps you iteratively design. Like a potter at work. At any point in time, you can extract objective information such as areas, distances and so on. What is the point of designing a building only to realize at the final stages that some
mathematical criteria was not right?
This capability of querying into the design is very powerful. TAD has a built in language called "ARDELA" (ARchitectural DEsign LAnguage) That can be used to create add-ons to provide additional querying functionality. These add-ons probe into
your model and provide you answers.
We would be releasing a marketplace for these probes -- and also a simple way for you to write your own probes too
The adjoining photo, a small gazebo kind of space was carved out on the
terrace on one part of the split-level in the rowhouse. An ARDELA area
add-on (probe) did all the calculations. We were then confident that we
can get that semi-enclosed space, without it being counted by the municipality
(in India, these area calculations are known as FSI calculations)
Over 3 million of actual built projects done over last 30 years. (From the office that created TAD) Scores of unbuilt ones

For far too long, we architects have not asked ourselves how we may do a better job in this world. Instead we just relied on some outside expertise and hand-me-downs. Let us rise and think for ourselves.
