TSG Kraken

Bikeradar.com reviewed the Kraken helmet above, among other very positive comments saying “it’s the comfiest fit we’ve tried of any helmet…”.

You’ve been kind to us…

Thanks! We wondered about moving the blog to a new home and then being basically off-the-air when we went to the Idaho TOT but July 2010 has been good for the Recumbentblog. This is the first month we’ve ever averaged over 2,000 visits per day which seems amazing as it wasn’t so long ago we [...]

‘BentRider Online Legacy Member/Partner Option

We GREATLY appreciate the generosity of our readers when they sign up, but keeping up with the manual subscription and renewal process takes up a lot of time for a two man show.

Hmm… a plastic, rotational moulded velomobile?

PoiterH (yes, THAT Poiter H) put a fascinating pic up on ‘BROL the other day. By its title I am led to believe this Trisled Rotovelo is a plastic, rotational moulded velomobile by the Trisled folks (home of the Avatar Super Velo and the Sorcerer Series IV Velomobile). It is big news if somebody has [...]

Mango Seed

There is a pernicious rumor going around here in Canada that the mango-yellow crop in this picture is Canola. I think I know better… my money is on Mango seed! And we have square miles of the stuff here, like maybe 17-18,000 square miles! That much Mango seed could produce a lot of Mangos eh? [...]
