Strange ride

Postby Jon H » Tue Apr 14, 2009 4:10 pm

I went for a ride on something very peculiar at the weekend.

The saddle was very wide, the pedals just hung down at the side instead of going round in circles, and as far as steering was concerned it seemed to have a mind of its own. It was quite comfy at walking speed, but got a bit bumpy when going faster. I've never seen this type of bike in the shops - can anyone help me out with what it was?

I think we had to slow down for you in one of the weekend races!

and perchance did it need sugar lumps rather than energy bars or creme eggs? :)
