It's a trike, it's not a bike.

They got the 'facial hair' part of the stereotype, but they forgot the 'pot belly.'

Goes without saying, not all 'bent riders have pot bellies... and not all DF riders have 'washboard" abs.
Just had to make that correction, or observation.
I did like the ad, the company is thinking of ways to promote themselves in all corners.

That's an Aerobelly...

Strangely enough, I got a recumbent in November and shortly thereafter grew a beard... Been whittling away at the aerobelly throughout the winter though :)

Got the beard because my front fairing protects everything but my face... the beard takes care of that and will disappear as the weather warms. The beard makes me increases my endurance... at least I'm not sure it I'd have ridden 1000 miles since November without it as part of my winter gear.:D
