3 years after purchase of my HP Velotechnik Speedmachine I felt it was time to update you on the bike. I have around 7000 miles on it, and it has been fantastic. I purchased the bike from Zach Kaplan in Alameda. If you need a recumbent, he is your man.

My video has me pointing up to a spot with some links. Turns out you have to be a Youtube partner to get that done, and I am not!! So, the links are below. I am pointing at nothing sadly...

Long thread about the transition from a road cyclist to recumbent rider started by me 12/17. Lots of good info in there from very helpful board members from around the world: https://www.bentrideronline.com/messa...
