Wish I had middle-of-Africa weather. Happy new year

Abbott is back! Wet roads I do not mind, but I hate riding in the rain. Once I got caught in a hailstorm. This is a really bad idea on a recumbent. I had to stop. The hailstones really hurt my face.

I do not want to be driving behind Larry when they all take off

They are Redline. They were the only short cranks I could find, and they were from American eBay. The left crank keeps coming loose. I carry an Allen key and keep stopping to screw it on again.

You want US to send bikes to YOU?

Happy Cruzmas to all! London is very warm for the time of year, but if I want to ride I will need a fairing. Huge amounts of water are coming down. At least it is not snowing.

My cranks have shrunk. Used to have 165, now 145, and I like it. More comfortable, and it seems more stable and steers better. Now I will resume my handlebar experiments. Brakes still work, btw

Maybe homophonic should be spelled homofonicly

The process was quite quick, actually. No problems. It took me to work and back. Very slowly over the speed-bumps.

Two guys, about 14 years old, asked to have a go. The first one whizzed off down the street. He could have stolen it. I was really glad when he turned round and came back. The second one got on, fell off, and the frame cracked. Nobody but me is going to ride the replacement.

Happy Christmas Thank you Cruzbike! And it the new version! One-piece seat! If any Parkers or Hollers etc are reading this, good packaging. I work in a freight shipping company. We all are continuously dumbfounded by the stupid packaging we see. What do the customers think we do with...

Fedex say it is on its way

I replied to Maria's message offering a replacement frame. Thank you Cruzbike. What a great company, what a great offer.

He was not a big bloke. He was still on it as it hit the ground. I heard the crack. At that moment I could see that the seat was at a funny angle. He had difficulty getting up as the bars trapped his legs. I have only rode it. The only time it was sent anywhere was when Cruzbike sent it to...

He put one foot on the pedal. He took his other foot off the ground. The bike went over sideways, with him on it. Did not seem hurt at all.

If I ever want to ride a Cruzbike again, I will have to get one. I did a really stupid thing. I let someone ride it. He fell off. The frame snapped. Other people have ridden it before. And fallen off. But I should not have let them, really, should I?

On the Grasshopper, I mean

Fool I am! I, of all people, should have thought of small wheels. I have 52t on that bike.

Aargh! I'm being overtaken by the Larrynator! Nobody will roll coal on that when they see it in the rear mirror.

Nothing unusual for Larry
