Don't think this has been on the forum.
"Roadie Meets Recumbent"
Enjoy.

:mrgreen: John that pretty much says it all to the uninformed. Sad thing for me is since riding bents I find myself riding my DF bikes less and less.

I felt a bit guilty watching - I am looking at living the stereotype because I have an injury, and I think I will have to move to a recumbent...

If only I could grow a beard.

Don't worry - they come in the box with the bike ... ;)

There is a reason recumbents recline backwards...brings tears to the eyes just watching.....

Also check out the mirror goggles he's wearing.

Quinns I'm not sure that I would be very comfortable riding in that position but I guess I will never know or have the chance to try plus his mirror he has set-up is pretty dandy.
