ISSAQUAH, Wash. — Issaquah's Ben Armlin said he was feeling nostalgic when he first started riding his tricycle back in 2015.   Armlin has several trikes now and said he's learned to perfect the design through years of field tests. Armlin and his trike are very popular this week as a heat wave has the Seattle area scrambling for relief.  Issaquah Ice Cream Trike is Armlin's nostalgic twist on the modern ice cream truck - minus the truck.   'I like pedaling around instead of being in a vehicle because it's friendlier and I get to meet everybody face to face,' said Armlin.
