Where can I read more about recumbents and recumbent riding Check out the 2003 Rans Rocket - click on the image to go to their site. How do I learn to ride them? We will assist you. We have several areas near our shop where novice recumbent riders can learn how to ride their new bike. Contact us and we will arrange a time and date to test ride. These are some tips we give to our new bent' riders: Relax! Really- sit back, let your back feel the back of the recumbent seat. Unlike your upright bike, you do not lean forward to ride. Do not use a death like grip on the handlebars. See the above suggestion regarding relaxing. A recumbent rider needs only to lightly rest their hands on their handlebars. Those with complaints of over steering or steering problems need to look to the amount of grip they are applying to their handlebars. Do not try to climb out of the saddle when you go up a hill. The key to successful hill climbing on a recumbent is gear down and spin.

Hugh Reid's Recumbent Page is a classic recumbent design and probably the best all round recumbent cycle. allowsyour arms to lie in a comfortable postion for long distance cycling. http://www.piloto.u-net.com/pages/eng2.htm
Extractions: Read this for the best argument yet in favour of 'bents Recumbent Cycles The concept of a recumbent cycle was first explained to me by a colleague Steve Shaw. Initially I was somewhat sceptical about the idea of steering from under the seat, but all the other engineering principles of recumbent bikes made sense to me, and I was determined one day to buy one. The day came when Linda told me that I would have to stop using her bicycle and buy my own because she wanted to go touring with me. You should be able to see me riding my bike, a Ryan Vanguard, in the picture above. Linda's bike was so good (a Flying Scot) that I would have been very unhappy buying a cheap bike as a replacement for hers. But if I was going to spend hunners of dosh, I would rather spend it on something I really wanted. That could only be a recumbent. The Vanguard is a classic recumbent design and probably the best all round recumbent cycle. It is a touring bike and is a bit heavier than a racing cycle. The long wheelbase design makes it stable and easy to control. The underseat steering allows your arms to lie in a comfortable postion for long distance cycling. Short wheel base cycles are lighter and generally faster. They are "twitchier" to steer and thus less suitable for long rides as you have to be "on the ball" all the time.
