[trikes] DELTA VS TADPOLE for speed

It doesn't seem like many people tour on deltas.  The Anura seems quite 
untested on tours, and lately I have read complaints about the Ketts not 
being durable enough for touring.

The tadpoles usually seem to be faster downhill and into a headwind.  
Uphill they seem similar.  On soft surfaces I am much slower on a 
tadpole.  

With that said, I don't think the speed differences are significant. 

I do plan to try a Kett or Anura on tour, I just haven't decided which one.
