      <description><![CDATA[Just watched a recording of it.  It was interesting in some ways but, as Geoff says, Very &quot;Roadie Orientated&quot;. If he wants to spend his money on that type of bike I am okay with that but I think it would have been good to see a few of the other bits and pieces that he would have chosen from to get to the final make up.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Over the past 3 weeks we have been in Denmark, Germany and Holland and have seen many interesting bikes on our travels.

Here is one for the heavy load bike brigade. This bike is in Blεvand on the West coast of Denmark.

      <description><![CDATA[Yes, it was interesting if a little roadie orientated. The idea of having a tailored bike is one many cyclists aspire too. I was a little doubtful about his choice of colours though!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[This was on BBC4 on Tuesday night.  It was absolutely super.  Rob Penn went around the world making up his perfect bike and looked at the history of the development of the Bicycle.  He paid a visit to the Brookes factory in Birmingham to get his saddle made.

Yesterday (Wed) we were touring National Trust sites in Cheshire and I was surprised to hear the number of people discussing the program.  Very interesting.

Anyone else here see it?  It is available on iPlayer for the next few days.

      <description><![CDATA[I know that road well - not been down it on my trike, but it seems the gauntlet has been thrown down...

I have hit 47mph on my Moulton coming down another ski road, the north side of the Lecht not that far from Cairngorm.  And I &quot;only&quot; got to 47mph because there was a headwind and a motor caravan in the way.  It's a great downhill - steadily increasing gradient as you drop, a sudden lurch into a 1:5 that leaves your stomach behind, and a twisty bit over a bridge that tests your mettle.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Way back in the early 70's, we used to get bike parts from the dump and build a sort of cross between a MTB, a BMX and a Raleigh Chopper - bear in mind that BMX and MTBs had not really been invented at that time. We used them for off road racing, ramp jumps - the sort of things kids do.

Several years later, I saw the same Open University film that Arellcat mentioned. I started buying New Cyclist magazine, and borrowed Richard Balentine's book from the library. I welded up a couple of recumbents and raced with the BHPC, but was always more interested in the unusual bikes.

If it wasn't for Hilldodger, Simon Sprocketbender &amp; the Spokesfest events, I would probably be devoting my time to something more sensible by now.]]></description>

Lovely frames they are, too.
I'm in the process of speccing up an off-road tourer but using a 1x1 frame as a base rather than the LHT or a Cross-Check (another tasty bit of kit) and going for a hub gear setup (Alfine 11-speed) rather than derailleurs.

I like Surly kit ... matches my overall demeanour I suppose.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Back in '92 I was a student nurse in Colchester. Met a young lady, wot eventually comed to be my wife, snd on weekend we went to her parents house in Little Thetford. Walking up from the house to the local club with Girlfriends 12 year old sister and passed a bloke with a wierd looking 2 wheeled object. Young sister type says &quot;Hi Kevin, Can I have a go?&quot; to which he gives an affirmative. She wanders confidently up and down the road and then says &quot;You have a go!&quot; to me. 
I did and didn't actually fall off but was vaguley interested. Few years later, having forgotten about recumbents, brother tells me he is havibg trouble riding a bike he has so I purchase it and it is a Recumbent. I ride it and grow to love it. Since then I have spent over 3/4 of my total income on bikes and trikes.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I was looking for a comfortable touring bike and bought a Pashley PDQ from a shop in Glasgow. It was great to ride on the open road but was a bit twitchy round town. That got me interested in the three wheeled recumbents so next up was an ICE Explorer custom trike. It was beautifully built if somewhat awkward for transportation as it wasn't able to fold as so many do nowadays. The third bent was back to two wheels, an HPVelotechnik Spirit. It was quite a high seating position for a bent and after awhile I longed for the three wheeled bent again. The fourth and present bent is an HPVelotechnik Scorpion FX, FX stands for folding, a very useful function for storage and transportation. It has rear suspension, 81 gears, racks for four panniers and a comfortable mesh seat. 
I don't think I'll be buying any more bents for awhile, they're too expensive for starters and in this age of austerity I'll just have to make do with five ordinary bikes and one recumbent.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[[i]Arellcat[/i].... [b]the slippery slope of recumbency beckoned...[/b]

[i]Add to that wet cobbles and tram tracks in Edinburgh city centre and it gets really exciting...
[/i]

Factors that decided to make me not buy another DF (apart from my Daughter's Dawes Duchess)

 Seeing [b]Arellcat[/b] on her [b]Windcheetah[/b] at an early Spokesfest (Edinburgh's bike fest on the Meadows run by Cathy Scott). I had a  [b]Thorn Voyager childback tandem[/b] which of course was a non-standard bike. I thought everyone would think this was a smarter idea than owning a car but no. Car sales in Edinburgh rocketed!

 Seeing [b]'Gandalf'[/b] leading the Spokesfest ride round town on his home built recumbent in 1997. This was cycling circus and caused a stir amongst shoppers in Princes St. 'Standard' bikes are generally ignored by general public so I enjoyed the theatre aspect of 'custom' designs. The festival had live music and races. My daughter loved it. Later ones had a recumbent race and we actually had four entries (remember this event was pre-web). Riding on wet grass made cornering interesting.

 Visiting [b]Bike Trax[/b] and seeing two M5 recumbents hung up in window  1998. One was an [b]M5 Blue Glide[/b] with suspension (Rubber block) and rack.  The other was an [b]M5 Citymate[/b]. I had a shot on the Citymate and concluded it was ok but probably dangerous (you see... I was quite 'normal' back then!)

 Internet connection to my then new PowerMac 8500. I realised that there were lots of designs that I couldn't afford. Visited [b]Kinetics[/b] of course and tried a [b]Burley Canto[/b].

 Did some graphic work for [b]TwoPLusTwo[/b] and got a [b]Voss Bevo[/b] in part exchange. Main interest at time was becoming a bike trainer and improving things for cyclists generally

 Read some paper issues of Bike Culture. Then [b]Velo Vision[/b] started (hurrah!). Read about [b]Seamus's [/b]exploits on his Challenge. Plus his [b]Bike Kulture Never[/b] site.

 Spoke to [b]Gerhard at Ligfietwinkel in Amsterdam[/b] and wondered about doing tours and try outs... I knew ny business would be much less in Edinburgh but if it let people try out more then it could work. Some early clients [b]liked my recumbents so much they bought two Streetmachines from Kinetics... ![/b]

 [b]Arellcat[/b] reappeared on a [b]Speedmachine[/b] which seemed pretty neat. Most bikes I've sold have been semi-low racers so her choice must have been ahead of its time.

That's enough for now... haven't even properly mentioned [b]Kiwi John on his Streetmachine[/b] or [b]Kevin on his Fujin[/b] or [b]Stuart and Seona[/b] modelling on a Focus and Mistral for [b]George Ferguson[/b] - freelance photographer for the [b]Edinburgh Bike Co-operative [/b].... 

Oh plus the  [b]tour to Rannoch.....[/b]  the Trossachs Ton etc

Basically the people locally and on VV have kept me going and the fact that I can give away (ie sell with tour) copies of the mag is a nice thing. Visiting York a couple of times has been nice too. Of course I should go to Spezi but it's often at time I can do tours and sell bikes.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Was it anyone on here riding a Quest velomobile in the Wolds today (Nunburnholme area)?  I saw you while I was doing the Big G sportive - I was just turning left off a road as you came up it, and said hello.  Several of my mates saw you as well - meaning that even on the Catrike, I wasn't the wierdest thing out there today!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[&gt; I should add that David of Laid Back Bikes in Edinburgh was also instrumental in
&gt; achieving the conversion for both myself and my wife.

&gt; First he persuaded Becks to let me have a shot on her Windcheetah and then
&gt; more recently let my wife have a shot on a demo Kettwiesel (prior to the
&gt; Trice test ride).

Hey, MacH!  How are you? :-)

My story is a bit convoluted, but when I was about 11 years old and on holiday in England with my parents, I saw a recumbent tandem parked outside a village shop.  I can still see the plywood and black camping mat seat cushions and the hand-laid carbon fibre frame.  To a little girl it was rather impressive and looked very comfortable.  Does anyone know who that machine might have belonged to?  All I know is that it was possibly owned by a German couple.

The Open University once did a feature about energy or transport or human power or something like that.  There was a long zoomed camera shot of recumbent racing on an airstrip or circuit, and I remember the lowracer with the black wheel covers, swooping around and generally looking cool as hell.  I did see the programme again when I was at university studying mech eng, but alas I can't remember the title.  So by now I knew that recumbents existed, and I even saw one (maybe a KC) while cycling home from uni in about 1995.  I was absolutely fascinated.

Then I saw a photo my Dad took while at Manchester's museum, of a three wheeled thing.  Of course, I was later to learn that it was Martin Powell's Windcheetah.  Shortly after that I seemed to discover all at once: Richard's bicycle book, Kinetics, BentRider Online, Recumbent UK magazine, Challenge, HPVelotechnik, and Velovision.

The rest as they say is history.  I bought a Windcheetah, then discovered another recumbent rider in Edinburgh (David, pre-Laid Back Bikes), spent hours at Kinetics, eventually acquired a Speedmachine...and the slippery slope of recumbency beckoned.

      <description><![CDATA[First recumbent I saw and tried was at the Kirkpatrick McMillan centenary bike show. Tried a Peer Gynt. Then spotted a report on an ICE trike on the Internet from the Folding Society mag followed by a conversation with David at Laidback. I became a lost soul!

Well done too for being pioneers... hope the press give you due acknowledgment. 

I know all the names from VV. Seamus was one of the first UK Mistral owners - so you encouraged me to get into (on?)... recumbents. [i](no into is better)[/i]

Paul Stobbs made a wee visit to LB recently. Did a fairly slick tour round on a Raptobike.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[VeloVision number 7, September 2002

has Spokefest and Cyclefest in it.

Spokefest, the one were I was wet, in the laKe.

I in the Dtec advert with Simon and Paul Stobbs.

you and play have many pics of me are in it.

&gt;I wish I could run another Spokesfest type event but the cost/effort of putting on an event isn't rewarded by a high enough attendance to make it feel worthwhile.

you have more poeple came]]></description>
