Think inside the box
Does anyone have a recumbent cycle? If so, what are they like?
If anyone doesnt know what a recumbent bicycle is :
Apparently theyre allot faster than conventional bikes, and were banend in 1934 from participating in races with conventional cycles as a result.
They look a big odd though, I mean must be hard to get used to getting on it. They also use different muscles to conventional bikes, so takes about 6-8 weeks to actually go faster than normal bikes. But they look so odd, I dont know whether I could ride one, also I like my racer. Its weird to think theres a faster type of bike than a racer.
