Seattle Snowpocalypse

This will work in the Dutch snow as well as in the Seattle snow …  ;-)

I always have some of those zip ties in my velomobile and only my rear tire will need some of them …..

my commute during sunrise

Chris and his skills …

Always nice to follow other blogs. Chris Luxembourg is still busy to realize his amazing dreams. The first is an old video he made a few years back …

But this winter he made the next one …  He writes;

“The finished vehicle I called Lowracer Hybrid Speedbike.  By law it’s a like an electric bike, but the size is more like a little car. “

I admire his craftmanship and wondered if it is simple to make everything yourself …   he answered ; “Of course it’s simple, you only need a few skills!”

We need more guys like him …

Somehow the music in his videos seem to fit with the images, although I like the classic rock more  ;-)

 

Velomobile TV

This unmistakable USA-guy discovered recumbents and velomobiles and is very enthusiastic about it. In fact, he is so excited that he started a website/blog last December. Now he also added a TV-channel on YouTube.

I hate don’t like the presentation , but hey ; we are all just amateurish on YouTube. I just hope the T-shirt will be gone next episode  ;-)   and there will be less talking and more original photos in the background. 

recumbents

Updated my recumbents-page .

splendid video …

… of the “oliebollentocht” made by Lefruitdefendu . I think most of the different models are present in this video. It’s a pity I couldn’t be there with my Quest !

 

The Reverse Traffic Pyramid

In my situation, it’s more complex …

149

I could have make it  150, but unfortunately I wasn’t there …

not suitable for velomobiles …

… and cyclists with fear of heights.

cold ears

These days it’s cold inside my velomobile. When I have to open the windshield to keep view on the cycle path, my ears are getting cold.

So what do you think about this solution I found at the internet ?????
