    TTrike!!!!

    Up up and away. Absurd ideas sometimes have merits. Just supposing a S40 had 3 wheels and a parasending chute ... that would have to be the most incredible experience. You would even be able to cycle back home easily after landing

    Merry Christmas

    I had a christmas day ride today. Too many cars on the road travelling to their in laws.... Christmas is a moment to worship the star you are. I turned the corner at los urritias and there were 10 flamingos feeding on a mirror lake. I ate my biscuits whilst watching them. Great treasure...

    Flying the Flag without the drag

    I don't think it's that noticable. Do you really need two bottles.... that looks excessive. They are good bottles. I got one and love it

    Does weight training offer any tangible benefit?

    Well... good for the sprinting on an upright but perhaps not so good on a recumbent. Muscle weighs more too and it makes you less flexible. Still think squats and bicep curls would be worth doing. It's nice to tighten up the biceps on those short hills and max the power. Me... I dont go to the...

    Helmets for Recumbents

    I think the helmet is good... it doesnt fit quite well on the head as the giro air and the clasp is a bit clunky. I think its sure value for money and if you put draft excluder tape on the bottom edge of the visor; in my mind it's better than the giro air with visor. Lighter for sure and I dont...

    Wireless Computer

    I would love the day when I can put a contact lens on my eye that has an augmented reality interface. That would be really good... but Elon is always pioneering new technology like a mobile phone brain interface. My wahoo elemnt sticks out in the air too much... must take 4watts at 40kph...

    Helmets for Recumbents

    Well my 10cents... giro air attack is good for cold climates but expensive. Or do what I did recently and buy cheap chinese one... the whole helmet and 3 lenses is cheaper than one air attack visor

    V20 build

    Hey Harry, Getting back to your build... if you want to put covers on your rear wheel you might want to keep rim brakes on that and just have hydro front disc brake on the front. It's quite nice not having to go out and buying a purpose rear disc wheel and another wheel for everyday riding. It...

    V20 build

    It could have been worse.... you could have been riding an upright and whatever it was would have you going over the top head first for sure. Very sorry about the shattered ankle. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

    Shimano has patented a bicycle gearbox

    I was so impressed with what honda did with the rn01 that I trolled the internet for a few hours many weeks ago and found some pics... Honda were so secretive about their gearbox design that they dismantled the gearboxes from the bikes at the end of the day and they were put in a highly secured...

    Eyeware

    I didnt put the order in for skydiving goggles... instead I bought some draft excluder and stuck it to my lens. I tried it with the yellow lens and I've been out on it and its wonderful but rather bright in 26c. I have plenty left so I will do it for the other lenses. It's the first time I've...

    Question for the older riders

    I have to mix mountain biking in with the upright df and the vendetta as I get shoulder and neck pain if I do too much of the other riding. When riding the Vendetta; I seem to be constantly lifting my head to check my mirrors due to edge of glasses effecting the field of site. Mountain biking...
