Son home from the Air Force Academy

Our son came home for spring break from the USAFA in Colorado and brought a few friends with him. We turned them loose with the Crubikes in our garage and, wow, they had fun riding around our neighborhood. It was a unique and satisfying experience to see so many young people on recumbents. You can see a Quest, Sofrider, Freerider, and Silvio in this video. Enjoy.

A salute to the Sofrider

 Sure, I'm part of Cruzbike, Inc., but first and foremost I'm in this for the joy of the bike ride. The Silvio and Quest are flashy and have some impressive qualities, and I have to admit that most of miles are logged on my Silvio, but the lower cost, "old faithful" Sofrider still beckons to me from my garage.  While I've ridden the Sofrider as far as 116 miles in one day, I usually use it for short trips across town, and I will pick a route that cuts through some woods with a bumpy trail.
