Trike Adventuring

"TAKE IT EASY ... TAKE A TRIKE!" - trike hobo
Steve's current recumbent trike is a 2021 HP Velotechnik Scorpion fs26 Enduro, outfitted with Schwalbe Marathon PLUS road tires instead of the stock knobby off-road tires. He has also owned a 2015 ICE Full Fat off-road trike, a 2014 Catrike 700 speed trike, and a 2007 ICE Qnt trike ... not to mention three bikes (Specialized Roll Elite - Motobecane Night Train fat tire - Easy Racers Gold Rush recumbent)

Looks so peaceful I'm so glad you've got company with you

Peaceful in many places for sure, but now and then a highway going through a town can be less so. steve

1st again.! "We don't need no stinking badges!" = "We don't need no stinking electric assist on steep hills."

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, a classic movie with Humphrey Bogart and Jon Huston, was my dad's favorite movie.

Wearing black what looks like leather gloves on a hot day?...Uh..No!

[@EZSteve]

Yep, I learn lessons over time, haha.

[@The-GreenHornet]

​@@EZSteve Ooh and those clipless pedals/and ballerina shoes. 😂

[@EZSteve]

@@The-GreenHornet Toe pedaling ... ugh, and to think I did it for 12 years!!! But once I learned (the hard way) that there is a better way, I made the switch! My feet have been very happy ever since the summer of 2022! steve

[@The-GreenHornet]

@@EZSteve Yep, me toooo! No more clipless pedals and those narrow ballerina shoes that cause Hot foot syndrome and numbness in the feet. I wish a lot more recumbent trike riders would make the switch. They don't know what they are missing... Power! stroke and Comfort!

@@The-GreenHornet Brainwashing, and trying to fit in with popular beliefs, is a powerful phenomenon. Most recumbent riders will continue with the status quo despite the evidence to the contrary. This may be because many trike riders only use their vehicles for local short rides, and never experience the agony of the feet on long trips loaded with cargo in panniers. Once the pain and discomfort reach an intolerable level, a rider can choose to either ignore it, believing that it's just part of cycling, or a rider can choose to explore sensible options that totally eliminate the discomfort, pain, and permanent medical issues of the feet. I am glad I finally chose the latter option, late yes, but better late than never! steve
