I love bicycles. I pretty much lived on a bicycle when I was in my teens and twenties. My first serious bike was a 1975 Motobecane Grand Record (a real Motobecane...not the fake ones sold today). Now I have two DF Cannondales (an aluminum T800 touring and a carbon fibre Synapse 3 road bike). I bought a recumbent because I was always fascinated by them and felt the USS style to be the epitomy of a recumbent, so naturally I was attracted to the Slipstream.
