Threes

When one happens across a group of three, its often thought the third must be a “third wheel”. But, third wheels are oftentimes helpful especially when riding a bike or driving a trike.

The most famous of trios would have to be the Three Stooges or maybe the Three Amigos.

Having two very special friends has its advantages. You will always have one looking out or forward for you and the other covers your back.
