Great, right? Unfortunately, the time improvement was wonderful but the bicycle's seat caused great pains in my seat. Ow...ouch...this just sucks.
My commute is a dream for a bicycle. It is slightly less than a mile, totally flat, and entirely on a sidewalk. I only have to hop one curb. Along the way, there is a Cumberland Farms and Dunkin' Donuts in case of dire needs such as junk food or caffiene. It doesn't get easier than this for the commuter who wants to use a bicycle.
After a very painful and uncomfortable ride, I was thinking about those other bikes. The strange ones where your feet are in front of you and sitting in the relative comfort of web seat. It seems like heaven to me.
My Plan :
- Research Recumbent Bicycles
- What are my requirements?
- Build or Buy?
- New or Used?
- Possible mitigating risk factors.
If anyone has any comments, please let me know. I will keep you up to speed on my progress.
