  • Big at the front !

    Recumbent riders are stubborn, self-opinionated cyclists. They often do their own thing and don’t give sh.t what others think about it. In this video there is such a guy who returns to the design of the ancient high-bi and shows that he made a practical easy-to-use recumbent out of it.

  • maiden trip from Dronten to Vlissingen

    I ordered a Quest at velomobiel.nl and found out that I was supposed to wait for three years according to the order-list. Luckily it took only two years in practice, because many buyers order their second, third or more quests for a certain year. So when velomobiel.nl cleaned up their order-list it showed mine to…

  • Velovision

    In issue 27 of Velovision ( www.velovision.com ) is an article about helmet cameras. The safety angle was a new aspect for me…. Just use a 2 Gigabyte memory-card during your ride and if nothing happens, just delete it. But if you register a dangerous traffic-situation on your camera, you have the best means to…

  • It started small

    This flat tyre was the cause that I arrived much too late at work. The spare innertube I had also peeped out and blew up with a loud bang. So I had to walk for 12 kilometers back home. Luckily I had my mobile phone with me and found my daughters willing to collect me…
