Hmm… that was stupid!

Saturday, 03 July 2010 06:36

For the last week, we were in Kellogg, Idaho, USA for the fourth annual Tater TOT. We took Penny’s EZ-3, my Mango, and one one VERY dead laptop! No laptop = no blogging, which explains but doesn’t excuse our silence for the last week. The lesson in the learning I guess is put a charger [...]

I’ve Become one of THEM!

Friday, 02 July 2010 09:15

By BRYAN J. BALL Managing Editor I’m not going to sugarcoat anything here. When I started this site ten years ago, I was a 24 year old punk who thought that most recumbent riders were complete geeks. I loved the bikes and most of the people that I met, but some of my readers provoked an eye [...]

Pannonrider – solar velomobile

Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:27

In last year one could see many velomobiles to change from only pedal powered to electric assisted. Well, if you look at it from the “eco” point of view,  it is a good step and the vision of greener transportation is even nicer with such velomobiles in use. Pannonrider is a new and much longer [...]

Sorry that we’ve been a bit quiet lately. Moving to a larger house around the corner and a family friend passed away suddenly. Should be back to normal Thursday.

Wrench Junkie

Sometimes I just make up reasons to work on my bikes. It might be a complete drivetrain overhaul or something as simple as replacing the bar tape, but it seems I almost always have some project or another in the works. I guess I have to face the fact that I'm a gear head of sorts, and working on bikes is very nearly (but not quite) half the fun. More →
