Yeah that pic didn't sport the handbrake that worked so well for 360 skids!
I'd think that the fully weighted rear wheel would be hard to skid, until you consider the seatback & on some models, hands-at-the sides steering (bent people what's the term for that?) Using these two things together it seems like it'd be a snap to skid a rear wheel fixed recumbent (if you overcame the chain length thing) Pull your ass into the seat & your back into the seat back while pushing with yon legs, weighted stop would be good. Ever worked out on one o' them universal leg presses? The only way I'LL ever lift 500lbs!
