It was pedal forward and it was nice and stable. The seat in recumbents is their major advantage. I bought this trailer to add capacity and visibility to my monkey bike... http://www.aosom.com/index.php?main_...oducts _id=45 (no pets, just for cargo but may confuse many drivers into thinking there's a child inside) |

Definitely will check those out. I guess someone has to die for something to get accomplished. Most of the time though people simply die and nobody cares. Not this time though... "In 1983, a man whose son was killed while riding his bike helped form the Pinellas County Metropolitan Planning Organizations Bicycle Advisory Committee. This committee, in conjunction with the Pedestrian Safety Committee, wanted a safe place to enjoy cycling, hiking or jogging. At the same time, Pinellas County officials had the problem of what to do with a 34 mile (55 km) corridor of abandoned CSX Transportation right-of-way." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinellas_Trail It mentions crime, is that a problem there? Here there's a big trail marked on the bike map around Miami, and at the first underpass we found a hobo/junkie campground, so we just turned back. The map simply says that you enter at your own risk. It would help they put a sign that reads 'WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE.' |

You need someone tough to clear the path first... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo0s9hC3F1M Just because the authorities don't care. Right here we got a path for "la creme de la creme" and "la merde de la merde" is also sitting by watching for predation. And they pay two security guys to do **** and idle by with no guns. Like I said, we need some tough enforcement or cowboy superheroes. |
