Counterpoint PRESTO! SWB Recumbent Bike

My first recumbent ride ever. One of the nice features for this one is that the length of the post to the drive train is adjustable, so people of different height can be accommodated. When I go out on the road on one of these, I notice that the fellas give a look of curiosity for one, or two- "Nice ride~!" The girls for the most part laugh at you unless you are doing about 25 mph. Really good for long uninterrupted roads, not the ideal for the streets with many signals and stop signs. Great for long distance trekking, I just did 55 miles at a very comfortable 12mph. Contrary to popular understanding, hills are no problem with these, as long as they are not steep grade.
