Does that mean "I never learnt to ride a bicycle"? Or " I have no sense of balance"?

Recumbents still have two wheels so you need to balance, but are bikes for those that like to make a statement about being quirky and different, that think Safari Suits are still fashionable, and an exposition on the mating habits of the Spotted Quoll makes for interesting social discourse at parties.

Actually that sounds like your typical Series or Defender owner...[emoji848][emoji23]

My wife with her dud back uses a recumbent exercise bike as the design doesn't flex the spine.

Some recumbents have two wheels, the trikes don't. Because they have three wheels.

What's wrong with Safari suits?

Quite true! Although most of the ones I saw running around Canbraaaa were bikes.

Recumbents are much faster and more efficient than standard bikes .... until you get to a hill. Then they stop working so well, unless you have some very low gears.
