:D There is a thread with "Bent" photos. The last reply was Dec. 05, 2004. Okay, here is pictures of six (6) of the seven (7) "Bents" that I have in my stable. :D

If it ever quits raining, I'll take a pic of both of my hi-racers together. In the meantime, check further in this newsgroup for a few pics.

So this is what my GT will look like when my Streamer Fairing arrives and is mounted. I have been waiting with anticipation for two (2) months. :(

Received my Streamer Fairing this evening in the middle of a snowstorm. :) 8" of the white stuff on the ground and expecting another 6"-8" overnight. Can't wait to mount it on the GT but no need to rush. Can't ride with this white stuff clogging the streets. :cry:

Yeah, took a while for mine to come through too, got the Speedbag reasonably quickly, but had to wait ages for the Streamer.

Found an extra advantage from the Streamer last winter - Cycling along one evening when the grit-lorries were out treating the roads before the snow came. On the 'bent, my head is at just the right level to get a face full of grit as they pass :eek: And when your face is cold anyway, boy does that stuff sting :mad:. Tilt the Streamer up slightly, and it does help to deflect the stuff away from you. Generally, I use the Streamer more for weather protection than for any aerodynamic effect - I'm rarely going fast enough for that.

After the snow quit falling this morning we have 12"-14" of the white on the ground. :mad: This will curtail my daily rides for a few days until the roads are somewhat clean and not mucked up. :D

Do they make trainers for Recumbents, that would be cool.

I use a TACX virtual trainer with steerer for my Optima baron lowracer. All I had to do was lengthen the base of the trainer. I also modified a cycleops trainer to be used for a 20" rear wheel. My lowracer though uses a 650c rear wheel.

had to get my daughter to shrink the picture or something and it wasn't the picuture I wanted and I think I'll do what she suggested go out and do a tune up on the car or something I can get a grip on!! and let her play with this tech stuff. but it is kinda fun if not frustrating!

Here's my Thunderbolt. Doesn't anybody else have one? It might not be as sexy as all your other fancy bikes, but I have so much fun riding it.

I also have photos of my commute. Don't be jealous all you snow people. Commute photos. (http://dianesoini.com/home/bike_to_work/commute/)
