>mark >who believes you should have multiple bikes for multiple purposes, >just like different boats for different conditions ;-) Mark - your multiple belief holds true for most "toys". At least that what I tell my future wife when she comments on my 2 bikes, 6 snowboards (soon 7), 2 tents, 2 sleeping bags, several packs, etc.. I'm not so sure she's convinced, but she's learning (she wants a 3rd snowboard). I do have only one kayak - but that's only temporary.

I too enjoy recumbents. I have a Vision Recumbents short wheelbase bike which I find to be very comfortable. Just as Sea Kayaking enables me to sit upright in a nice big seat and see the world as I paddle, the recumbent gets rid of nasty pressure points and lets me sit upright and see what I am peddling past rather than hunching over and cursing my aching wrists. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Zen [mailto:canoeist_at_netbox.com] Sent: Thursday, November 04, 1999 4:40 AM To: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subject: Re: [Paddlewise] offtopic -recumbents At 11:11 11/4/99 -0600, Chuck Holst wrote: >>> >Another recumbent bicycler in Pwise!
