Bamboo Recumbent
Dug is riding a recumbent on this tour. This recumbent is not the normal big name that you are apt to recognize. This recumbent is a special build by artisan builder Klaus Volkmann. A musician from Brazil who, in his spare time, builds bamboo recumbents.
The bike is now finished and in road testing. The build has been posted on his blog. Great pictures and great story.
Thank you for such a nice write-up! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that! Great blog here, I followed and bookmarked it. Blessings!
Dug
Thanks Dug, best of luck to you.
