    E-assist trike/velomobile vid

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzF6isvl2sY Posting this for informational purposes only - it ain't art, that's for sure, so, keep that in mind when posting replies, please.

    On Trolls - not just under bridges any more

    I was posting on another forum where some 'trolls' were asking 'questions', the answers to which they weren't in the least interested. We've all seen the type that believes that "real cyclists don't assist", or "you gotta be disabled to ride assist". We realize that when an individual throws...

    First ride with the Cycle Analyst

    More info than I'll probably ever need on watts/mile, watts used, amp hours used. Found out I used 302 watts on today's ride, of 12 miles, an average of about 25 watts/mile. All to haul home an 80# bag of Sacrete, four 10# tubs of hydraulic cement and a 10 foot length of 4" perforated drain...

    Please HELP! Looking for a fork for my X5

    It's gotta be 1 1/8" threaded 250mm long or longer. All the usual sources are a bust. I'm waiting for an answer from BikeUSA, but that could take days, and the new motor is singing to me. It's for my Sun EZ3 AX trike - replaced the 400w WE motor on a 20" with the X5303 on a 26". Kinda...

    PV/WE Hub Powered Recumbent Trike

    I figured I couldn't wait for Toyota to come out with their plug-in hybrid, and as I had a spare recumbent trike, trailer, pv panels and 36w MPPT controller, this is the result of being retired, time on my hands and an inventive nature. Voila - the TGV! Rode it 33 miles yesterday, lots of...

    Vids

    Since I'm on a roll with videos, here's a link to my Youtube site, highlighting a ride along the Chicago Lakefront Path. Scenery is spectacular, I think you'll agree! Enjoy! Feel free to comment. Or not. http://youtube.com/watch?v=r8VWzW7wO5c Tourezrick the Scorpion King

    Tinley Creek Trail Video

    Haven't seen any postings for vids on this board, but then, I haven't really looked hard. Moderators - if you feel this is a violation because this is shot from a recumbent trike that is only electrified occasionally, then do what you feel necessary. Otherwise, enjoy the ride, scenery and...
