    Hot Buy - Off the Bike Lights
    On a tour, off the bike lights are much more than a convenience, they can be a safety item. A good light will let you make repairs by the side of road in the dark, it will also light your way home from dinner, and to the bathroom at night. Those are all important but my light has to also be great for reading in the tent at night, be very reliable, be very light and small and not use many batteries. That used to be hard to find but LED lights give 50 to 150 hours of good light with just 3 AAA batteries so they are both small and light. I can travel with these and only carry one set of spare batteries, that save a lot of weight. Two companies seem to really stand out when it comes to LED lights, Princeton Tec and Petzel. They make fairly priced reliable high performance LED lights. I usually find the best deals at Campmor.com

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation search Lightning P38 (a short wheelbase recumbent) and rider rest during a long tour. A recumbent bicycle is a bicycle which places the rider in a seated or supine position (rarely, in a prone position). Recumbents hold the world speed record for a bicycle and were banned from international racing in 1934. The back of the rider is supported, and the rider's legs extend forward to pedals that are at about the same height as the seat . Steering is either above- or over-seat steering (ASS or OSS) using a handlebar in front of the rider, or under-seat steering (USS) using a handlebar under the seat. The wheels are often smaller and/or farther apart than on an upright bicycle Records of recumbent designs go back to the early days of cycling, but recumbent use was not widespread until the late 20th century. Recumbent riders hold world speed records for unpaced, human-powered vehicles. Tricycles form a substantial part of the recumbent market (far more so than they do for uprights); the generic term "trike" tends to be applied to these as well.

Recumbent Cycling
Jamie Fletcher
Recumbent cycling is a great leisure activity enjoyed by many people all over the world. It offers several distinct advantages over the common diamond frame bicycle (Fig.1) that we are all accustomed to today. These points and an attempt to draw conclusions regarding the future of recumbent cycling will be discussed in the following. Firstly, it is necessary to gain some knowledge and understanding of the subject matter by defining what we mean by ‘recumbent cycling’ and explain a history of its development.
Fig.1: Standard ‘diamond frame’ bicycle Fig.2: Example of a ‘recumbent cycle’ The word ‘recumbent’ originates from the Latin meaning ‘to lie down’. Generally, all definitions of a recumbent cycle agree that it is a machine with two or more wheels, where the rider sits in a seat with legs in a horizontal position. An example of this can be seen in Fig.2. There are exceptions to this, but for the purpose of the essay it will serve as a good working definition. It is difficult to pinpoint the invention of the recumbent cycle, although some early cycle designs during the middle 1800s placed the rider in a semi-recumbent position (see fig.3).

14. ZOXed: Recumbent Cycling, ZOX20, Kettwiesel, WohnSinn Flats...
This site is about recumbent cycling and relates primarily to the ZOX 20 Lowracer and the Flux V220 and the Hase Kettwiesel.
http://www.zoxed.eu/
Summary
This is a hobby site covering recumbent cycles (Zox, Flux, PDQ) and trikes (Kettwiesel), computing (esp. Linux) and the WohnSinn housing project.
Recumbents
The ZOX 20 lowracer is a recumbent bike most noticeable for it's very low seat height (9.8inch / 25cm) for improved aerodynamics. (AKA Zox20, Zox 20, Zox Lowracer, Zox Tieflieger, Zox20z, Zox Z-frame). For me an excellent day-ride bike.
The Flux V220 is a very stable recumbent that I *was* using for all my around town commuting and child trailer towing. Now used only occasionally for shopping trips, and leisure rides with the family (see Kettwiesel below).
The Hase Kettwiesel is my first recumbent trike . I bought it mainly for winter use and the possible addition of a fairing for wet/cold weather protection, but I have now ridden it every day for my daily commute, whatever the weather, since March 2003. It is fun and very relaxing to ride, but when I am in the mood it is also fast (with it's stiff frame and no active suspension).
The Pashley PDQ was my first recumbent :-) but has now been dismantled :-( to build my ZOX 20 :-))

    Recumbent Cycling
    You may have seen recumbent bicycles before and maybe you have wondered why people are using this kind of bikes. I want to give a short introduction here in this lense. There is a wide variety of models available. There are recumbent bicycles and tricycles. Some are fully faired, these are called velomobiles. The constructions vary from everyday recumbents where you sit almost upright to lowracers where you lie a few inches above the ground. Riding recumbent bikes is a lot of fun and wherever you have the chance to try one you should do it.
    What is a Recumbent Bicycle?
    And why do people use it?
    A recumbent bicycle is a bike where you can sit in a relaxed (usually reclined) position on a comfortable seat. Unlike on a standard bicycle the seat on a recumbent is comfortable at all speeds.
    Some recumbents can be faster than conventional bikes because of better aerodynamics. If the pedals are higher than the seat, the legs are in front of the body and the frontal area is smaller resulting in less air resistance. The faster you go the higher is the advantage. You will especially notice this when going downhill. Aerodynamics can be even better with the use of streamlined fairings and wheel covers.

    Recumbent cycling, the up and coming sport in Doussard
    Tuesday 09 May 2006 Based in the Vernets industrial zone, Jean Pierre Henon’s crazy company, convinced of converting the French to the recumbent bike, seemed destined to a rapid failure in the country where cycling is carried out in the traditional way, head and shoulders over the handlebar and handlebar over the front wheel.
    But this was forgetting that the even the most established traditions can be overturned and that fashion rules over the laws of physics and balance: the recumbent bike has taken off at a rate of knots and sales double each year according to Jean Pierre, our neighbour who sets the example by climbing the Col du Forclaz and setting speed records in the descent!!!
    For the sceptics, we add that position isn’t important if there is the thrill of speed and it is speed, which is the all-important feature of the recumbent bike.
    A must to try during your stay at the Hotel Arcalod. See the website

    GET READY
    for some Seriously Healthy Exercise and Fun!
    There are two kinds of people riding traditional bike (bicycle) seats - There are those who have pelvic-area and/or neck "issues", and there are those who eventually will have pelvic area and/orneck issues. If you belong to a gym or a physical rehab program, you'll notice the recumbent exercise cycles always are occupied first. That's because they protect and do not threaten a persons sensitive tissues in the pelvic region. (Isn't that a nice way to say it?) The BoomerTrike recumbent tricycle bicycle is the same in that way, but it also comes standard with the "change of scenery" option. You rice confident you are not headed for prostate damage, vaginal or anal bruising, colon damage or any other nasty little secret of the traditional bike seat.
