for $400 I could fly out there and do it and still make a couple bucks.
if you don't mind me asking, why are you offering so much?

it's for an ad, and that is how much they pay "real people" hot models make like 2k a day. us normal folks just get by!

Hi Mike,
Mark here and I saw your post. I have several recumbents in my stables, including a tandem trike. I also have a Ferrari trike and a Dutch quasi lowracer. I also ahve a few others, but those are the most interesting. The trikes can haul a Burley trailer and they all have their own saddle bags and/or baby seats. A baby seat on the lowracer is quite a site.
I'm a househusband down in Monterey, so I have the time to drive up and help you out. Plus the wife always appreciates extra $$$! I also used to own a recumbent shop down here so I'm pretty well versed in recumbents, as well as 30 years in the bicycle industry.
Interested? Call me anytime at 831-521-3801. I'll size some pics after I post this!
Thanks for your consideration,
Mark Bunten aka Dr. Deltron

Haven't seen Scarry around here much. He's in the Fremont area, and rides his Bachetta pretty much EVERYWHERE.
