We think the forum issues have been resolved. Please let us know if you all encounter anything strange an unusual (other than Larry) ;-)

Epic!!!! Definitely post photos of the journey.

Just wanted to put out another post - we are still trying to iron out some of the technical issues with forum signups. For people who are already on the forum and having trouble posting photos, etc - we are working on those issues as well. We have the web company looking at it now - so...

Sweet! For a guy like me who tends to lazily ride along enjoying the trees (except for the downhills of course) this has been a good kick in the pants to put forth some effort and actually ride for some fitness haha!

Now they are starting to emerge with 1x13 drivetrains. Sigh.

On every platform recumbent and upright it is my experience that everything is a bell curve. An ideal angle for a given BB height, an ideal weight distribution for great handling, etc etc. When you start to adjust out of whatever that curve is for that particular bike - weird things happen and...

GAH. Sand will send a rider down nearly every time. Never good. :-(

The older style chain stay clamped around the actual bearing cups themselves, limiting the selection of BB's. The new style has moved the clamps inboard, and clamp to the BB shell on the boom - leaving the shell open for any BB you want.

Hey everyone - we just wanted to post a note - if you are having technical issues with the forum or signup issues, we are working to solve those. Hopefully all the hiccups from our server change will be solved soon. Thanks for your patience. Robert

Congrats to everyone who was there and raced - even just doing it is a great accomplishment for sure! Thanks for the recaps.

"More gear range" Also = GIANT gaps between the gears. Ugh.

Not recommended and any gain will (in my opinion) be very minimal. However the potential change to the handling could be very large. Likely to get more speed out of a change of tires and pressures I think. If the knees at the top of the pedal stroke are going much higher than your shoulders...

Body paint. :)

Likely an issue with the website/host changes everyone. Lucia is out at the moment but stay tuned we are working on finding out what is going on. Robert

CF can work on DF frames and be light because they are dealing with short tubes and triangles. A CF recumbent Flex like noodles, unless triangulated. Can also set up bad harmonics depending on the design.

The S40 does pretty well on gravel. Of course climbing and descending are going to be are combination of maintaining grip on the road and rider skill - that goes for any recumbent bike not on a paved surface. This also depends on what constitutes the gravel surface - if it is very loose this is...

There will not likely be a CF recumbent from that weighs less than an aluminum one - and some steel ones can weigh less than either if they are made right. The CF ones that do exist flex like noodles. No thank you.

Well, looks like my power info doesn't make it to Strava. Nothing like two steps forward and 10 steps back. Time to go ride outside with ZERO tech attached to the bike. Ugh.

Cool. I was not even aware that you couldn't change worlds. Been off the Swift for a while doing neighborhood loops at a much more relaxed pace so this will actually get me into the groove again. I tend to ride at far too leisurely of a pace outside anyway and there are way too many...

Did it this AM on the volcano flat. What a PITA having to do the "world hack" etc etc. Is this 2002 with these internet hacks? Seems a simple thing to let users pick wherever they want to ride.... except I forgot we are dealing with the very large cycling community so there always seems to be...
