As I look at my tadpole trike I can’t help but think of the famous words … “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways”. Like most tadpole trike riders I have a lifetime of riding bicycles … road bikes and mountain bikes and finally for only a relatively short time recumbent bikes before I took to tadpole trikes. When I think about road bikes and mountain bikes the first thing that comes to mind now is the extreme discomfort and misery of riding them. And when I think of riding a recumbent bike or trike (even more so a trike) I think of just the opposite … extreme comfort and enjoyment. So to start off with probably the most obvious thing is the seats of each.
My, doesn’t he look comfortable?
And I say again, doesn’t he look comfortable (and happy)?
Definitely he does not look like he is in any kind of misery.
As I was saying … some things are simply a “no brainer”. Just don’t fall asleep enjoying all that comfort. We all want to …
KEEP ON TRIKIN’
I LOVE your two equations at the end Steve!! I very much agree, ha ha.
My bike really wasn’t terribly uncomfortable. I ride and enjoy my trike because I had a stroke.
