I finally got my Recumbant

[supernova1965]

I am unable to ride a normal bike and so have been putting on the weight I used to ride 60klm's a day before and no longer could. But I finally got my Tadpole Recumbant bike built and am riding it for the first time on a charity ride (http://www.river2reefride.com.au/) for Sporting Wheelies and CQ Rescue Chopper on Saturday:D

Hi Warren,best of luck with your bike and your bike ride on the weekend :thumbsup:
When I was on my travels last year I met a guy who was riding one from Perth to Sydney:eyepop: broke it on the Nularbor aand his parents delivered another one from Perth to nearly Ceduna and took the old one home :shrug:
he said it was very comfortable ,but doesn't look that way to me :rolleyes:
All the best :thumbsup:

Woohoo!! Looks good Warren, hope it works out well, and good luck Saturday. :thumbsup:

Hey Warren, you should fit a little video camera to the handlebars and record your cycling adventures.

A mate of mine has a little one that attach's to his motorbike helmet.

Hi All,

I had a good time on the ride except for a small mechanical problem with the left hand crank the nut kept coming loose so we need to solve that but that was the only problem with the bike. So I didn't make it but I wouldn't have made it anyway as I need to build up some fitness and I only had the bike for three days before the ride. Here are some pic's from the start line from in front and behind me.
