TELL US HOW YOU CHOSE CRUZBIKE

My first recumbent was a Cruzbike Kit. It was one of the first ones made, and my build was heavy but fun. I then moved on to nearly every style of two wheel recumbent. Then, I stopped riding two wheel recumbents for several years due to the poor climbing performance. Then I (re)tried a newer Cruzbike and fell in love.

TELL US SOMETHING INTERESTING ABOUT YOURSELF

I have two daughters who both ride recumbent trikes and two wheelers. My youngest (age 11) favorite bike is her 20" wheel Quest.

FLYING DOWN THE ROAD
IN COMPLETE COMFORT

DESCRIBE YOUR
CRUZBIKE LIFESTYLE

I ride for fitness, but primarily want to have fun and be comfortable when riding. If it isn't fun I do not want to ride. The problem is that I also like to go fast. Riding a Cruzbike allows me to hit every aspect that I enjoy of riding a bike.

TELL US WHAT A GENUINE
CRUZBIKE MOMENT
LOOKS LIKE FOR YOU

My genuine Cruzbike moment is that moment when cruising along the flats or the rollers realizing I am practically flying down the road in complete comfort, with much less effort than I would be expending on ANY other bike. That means more miles for me.
