New to recumbents
Hi. I'm more of a recreational biker who tends to get in and out of it every couple of years. I still own the Nishiki 10 speed I used in the late 70's and 80's, as well as the GT RTS3 Mountain Bike I bought in the early 90's. Recently, because my badly out of shape 53 yr. old neck, back, and butt couldn't take the mountain bike for any length of time, I purchased a Bacchetta Agio recumbent which has rekindled the sport/hobby for me. I'm hoping some regular riding will help me loose weight and get in better shape. So far, so good.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
