knees?
I started reading 'The Big Ride', a woman's story about 700+ riders riding across the country, and she has some comments about recumbents. I want a r.trike, but her comments made me pause. The mechanical problems, like chains breaking because they were so long, and physical problems, like riding without the benefit of gravity is hard on the knees with recumbents. Mostly I'm wondering how knees hold out with recumbents, because mine are as worn as the next guy/gal at mid-age.
Harder on the knees? Easier?
