We have two bent riders who take off roading to a more comfortable place. Hezi Yismach is an Israeli bike designer and builder with a penchant for innovation. Richard Ehrlich rides his custom built off road bents where even mountain bikes are challenged. This Canadian adventure rider is even competitive in many of the racing events he enters. We will learn about these amazing guys and then engage our panel in a discussion of bikes, trikes and the future of recumbent off road riding.
The Icarus Cup event is a pure human powered flight event at Manston Airport in Kent, England. Our British Human Powered Club correspondent Barney Harle was there this past June and delivers a fascinating report.
Trident trikes has a new children's trike called the "Half Pint". Owner Tom Flohr was kind enough to ship me a loaner this summer so we could do a review. My grandkids unboxed, assembled and test rode it so we could evaluate it from a kids perspective.
