I used to work in the bicycle industry, and the trikes were notorious for being unstable and tipping over when making even wide turns. I remember a bike shop manager talking to me about how much he hated them because they tended to be bought by seniors who then got hurt when they tipped, but his store owner insisted they had to stock them. There are super rugged fat tire bikes with great shock absorbers out there, they are designed for non bike friendly environments like gravel roads and potholed city streets. If you get any bike, get a good helmet, and any bike in Puna needs good tall flags so no driver pops over one of these bumps n the road and discovers you right in front of them. Have fun.
