Unless you can pull some sort of trailer, or have a sidecar (not sure
what you mean by trike), I'd really recommend staying away from
systems like the MicroVAX 3300, and MicroVAX II. I'd prefer not to
hear about you being crushed by a VAX. Hint, they make nice
end-tables.
VAXstation 3100's could prove interesting, but should be totally
doable, plus they'll be easier to get up and running.

If you're
not too fussed about England specifically, I have a MicroVAX
3300 and a couple of VAXStation 3100s going spare. I also know where
you could lay hands on a MicroVAX II.
How do you mean?
I have to collect it somehow and I don't have a car - I'm a biker. I
do have a trike, so wide loads and balance aren't a problem, but we'd
have to wrap it weatherproof and strap it on my back seat or luggage
rack!
