  • Quest 552

    Quest 552 had its maidentrip from Dronten to Vlissingen.  265 kilometers in 10 hours. It was fun to ride a new Quest without all the noises and sounds I’m used to hear in Quest 215. I missed my neckroll, but all the other new changes made it a great joy to ride ! http://www.velomobiel.nl Underneath…

  • Quest 215 …

    … has a new owner !  Johan T. will give the velomobile a good check up and the necessary maintenance. He told me that he planned to ride it until he feels that he is experienced enough, before he’ll paint it yellow.  I’m 55 years old and learned a lot in my life; but I…

    A nice ODO to sell the Quest.    😉

  • movie trailer …

    This movie will give a huge rise of “fixie”-bikes all over the world. Imagine the consequences if a similar movie with velomobiles in it will be a hit in Hollywood ……

  • Quest in New Zealand

    I have a Quest in Zeeland, but now Peter Williamson got his Quest in New Zealand and started his blog too ! It’s a funny idea that we are riding our velomobiles upside-down as antipodes 😉  😉

  • new tyres

    I didn’t trust them anymore. If there’s one thing I really hate; it’s a flat tyre in windy and rainy weather on a dyke without any shelter ….. Since I use Marathon Plus I never had a flat 😉

  • Strange sound …

    I heard this strange sound when I used the cap on my velomobile. I heard it since a few months, but didn’t care. With the cap though, it was so loud that it became a nuisance. So yesterday I dismantled the wheel and found the poor condition as you can see on the photo ……

  • … tourcap…

    The tourcap arrived ! The package did it’s work; nothing was damaged … …it’s easy to put things together … … now testing in real life …

    the guy who uses my velomobile as a toilet every night !

  • eastermeeting

    The weather was superb. I arrived Friday late in the evening and left on Monday.  I enjoyed seeing all the men and women being busy with their “recumbent business”. I bought some newspapers and took all the time I had, to read them from A to Z. At the campingsite I found out that I…

  • Eastermeeting

    Next weekend I’ll meet all the other recumbent riders at the “Paastreffen” (Eastermeeting). For an impression you can have a look at the next videos. Notice that the journey to and from the meeting is an important part of the weekend  for me  (230 km one-way)…. I’ll use this GPS-track ;
