    Beginning Cruzbike Rider

I've had it for 5 weeks now, though I've only been using it seriously for 2 weeks. I'd love to hear any suggestions people have for adapting to the new bike...

    a first

    Well, not a big ride, but a significant one, my first on any two-wheel recumbent. Kim Tolhurst came through my home town, and we arranged to meet up for a test ride. Seems this was one of the Silvio prototypes, and one of John's own bikes ? Cool !! Anyway, as many of you have found, it is...

    Softrider as a convertible bent/upright?

    Hi, For a while now I've been intrigued with the idea of having a 'convertible' touring bike, that could go from cruzbike position to upright and back, depending on the riding conditions and terrain. For example, If I know I'll be climbing all day or on rough off-road terrain, I'd ride upright...

    Canberra, Australia. Silvio or any Cruzbike?

    Hi, Anyone in the Canberra region? The Silvio has me tempted to try a recumbent for the first time, but I'd certainly like to try before I buy. And, I'll look around the forum, but I'm 6'2" tall, long in the body, so a bit concerned as to how the seat will fit my back. thanks, Steve W

    Recumbents Rule.

    This was going to be a quick ride, hopefully quick enough to beat the rain that the radar showed was heading my way. With that mindset, off I went for about an hour's fast ride. Or so I thought. Passing me on the other side of the country lane was a short-wheelbase recumbent. The normal sort of...
