So how many recumbent riders have we?

[LeeW]

Even I use an upright when I nip into the town centre (all of about one mile, which I can just about put up with). An expensive bike would not last very long in grimsby town centre.

Fair enough. I will admit that despite my love of recumbents they are probably inferior to uprights at weaving through traffic in city centres and seeing into junctions, making them slightly slower through stationary traffic, even if they're faster through moving traffic. But not yet inferior enough for me to justify getting a upright for the purpose of commuting (at the moment I don't own any uprights).

Some pretty nice bikes 'n trikes you've got there. I do rather like the design of the Quest - simpler, but I'm sure no less effective than the all-singing, all-dancing likes of the Leitra and even Go-one.

I have had my Windcheater for 4 years and can not do without it. I am not a rider for long distances but the Vendee where I live is flat safe and has close on a thousand kilometres of good cycling and cycle ways.

Just seen 4 early ICE (age) Recumbent Trikes, they were at the start of the Flintstones Movie, good solid Rock, off road tyres, over the shoulder rear stearing and sturdy Oak frame.
ICE Q, Nottingham.

I saw that and wondered who on the production/props team was a 'bent rider.

ICE B3

B3?

ICE B3 is an ICE B2 with a 20" front wheel prototype cross of the B1/B2 I liked it so much ICE let me have one now . They intend to market it in the future when refinements have been completed.
