Easy Racers Tour Easy
LWB Recumbent bike |
Description: I purchased this older used Tour Easy to see how I like a LWB.
It is heavier and doesn't climb hills as well as my Stealth - but it's comfort I'm after, and this bike is comfortable. Besides, there's few hills in Florida, so why be concerned about weight?

2005 Rans Screamer
Recumbent Road Tandem bike |
Description: Purchased this bike as an experiment to see if we would like a 'bent better than our regular tandem. After we moved to Florida we have switched to this bike for most of our tandem rides.
A couple of years ago we acquired an M5 tandem (made in the Netherlands). It has become our regular bike and when we do ride our Screamer it seems to require much more effort than the M5. We probably should sell this bike.

M5
Recumbent Road Tandem bike |
Description: This sadly neglected, lightly damaged, Dutch tandem was offered to us at a very reasonable price. It was too good to pass up, so I've been working on getting it into riding condition.
That "go-fast" rear wheel bugs me, but my dear stoker likes the look of it, so for now it'll stay...

2003 Cannondale MT800
Tandem Road bike |
Description: This is the bike that got us started in bicycling - it was a 30th wedding anniversary present to each other.
When we purchased this bike we vowed that we wouldn't dress up in those weird spandex clothes we had seen on bikers. Hmm!
And because we fell in love with cycling, we eventually moved to Florida so that we can ride the Withlacoochee State Trail. We no longer ride this bike, preferring one of our recumbent tandems.
I now seldom even drive anywhere because I can ride almost any place I need to go for errands or recreation.

Lightning Stealth
SWB Recumbent bike |
Description: My venture into the world of single 'bents. After a year and 5,000 miles, I still can't get comfortable on longer (75+ mile) rides probably because the bike is too small for me. The steering is quicker and it climbs hills better than the Tour Easy. It is a fun bike to ride.

2004 Cannondale Sport Road 500
Road bike |
Description: My first single bike and I really enjoy riding it. However, I've decided that upright bikes are simply not as safe as recumbents, so I seldom ride this bike anymore.
Compared to my 'bents, this bike is lighter and much faster up hills.
