Pity. I am heading to Rotorua in January for a holiday, hoping to take it with me.

Yup, real dorky, but when you get to my age, who the f*** cares. Kids stare amazed, teenagers laugh (thats what they are supposed to do), adults smile.

Riding home tonight into a 50kmph headwind, still doing 30km, passing upright bicycles like they are standing still, priceless. And thats without the fairing.

Not just recumbent, but with a spare wheel
Part of me just threw up a little, the other part wonders what it would be like with a set of knobblies off road. . . .

Somewhere there is a video of a German tourist riding part of the Heaphy track on his 3-wheel recumbent. :huh:

They only did a few tracks around Kohaihai, the bridge was too narrow
