anybody into riding bikes...or for that matter...recumbent bikes...I rode my mountain bike for years from 89 till 99...then when I moved to Atlanta I found no time to ride...years after the fact I'm riding again in 2010...I bought a recumbent bike a few weeks ago and love it...I have been riding 4 to 6 miles a day daily when I work and about 12 to 15 miles on my days off...feels so good to be riding again...I have a bad back and the bike is so much more comfortable then my old mountain bike which is still in my garage begging for a ride...

I've heard good things about the TerraTrikes. Looks like a blast to ride.

I hear ya...I bought it to motivate myself to change my lifestyle and I have...it gets me out exercising everyday...end result is I feel allot better physically...and big bonus is I'm losing weight...well worth the money in my case...felt good to take a break from car mods and get something to mod myself with if that makes sense...

the pedals make a huge difference...added fenders yesterday and after getting caught in the rain...I can say they make a huge difference as well...no more grit on the back of my neck...jumped on the scale yesterday...I have lost 18 lbs so far...I have ridden almost 400 miles in the last 2 months of ownership...

I do but I dont ride in the winter so I am getting back into it now. Today was a lazy 3 mile ride at a local park near here. Sean it would be cool if somehow you could make that into a mountain bike but I think you would neat a seatbelt. |

Mine died shortly after I got my Fit Sport. I'm working on rebuilding the 2 frames I've got. There are some great places to go biking down here in Statesboro.
