I agree completely! Keep things simple and avoid unnecessary distraction--or was that detraction. Worse yet are recumbent trikes. Definitely do NOT go there.

:D That was funny. Sue's a nice lady. She used to post a lot on a.r.b.r. until it really went downhill.

bent = surrender
sorry that athletic endeavors are often unlike laying on the couch or watching american idol in your laz-boy recliner.
what's next, go to a running forum and start a subgroup riding segways because "running isn't as comfortable as just standing"?
or maybe start a tee-ball forum at espn's MLB forums?
or lifting weights, dOOd that totally hurts!
comfort at all costs!
Lot of benters like the LAZYboy style that recumbent riding offers. Thick seat pads go with the LAZYboy seat. Kind of like a Schwinn cruiser with the padded fur seat. Comfort, walking, recliner riding and PBJs are the way to go for some folks who pedal around their neighborhood.
