his article. Thanks Ben!
Thanks to Ben for the article he published regarding Silk—If Batman rode a recumbent trike, it would probably look something like “Silk”. More…
You may have seen the Trizard before {scroll down}; but, have you seen the 2011 model? Randy Schlitter, founder of RANS Bikes, introduces it in his latest Into the Ride Article [ITR #95]. For comparison, please see my May 2009 Article based on Bryan Ball’s, BROL Managing Editor, review and photo of his Trizard by Gregory McLean, The Hipster—now deceased. R.I.P. Greg.

I’ll be brief: I placed an order for the Cruzbike Vendetta yesterday. And I’m hoping to do the same for the Cruzbike Sofrider soon.
August of last year, I did a brief piece on a hand-cyclist [Sonny Neumiller] bound from Yorktown, Virginia to Seattle, Washington to meet up with his daughter for her wedding. I followed that piece with more on September 9, 2009, where we learned he arrived at his destination on his hand cycle and made his daughter’s wedding. We were not quite sure of some of the details between our meeting Sonny and the dipping of his front tire in the Puget Sound. Well, tonight we learned more. Sonny’s son, Nate paid a visit to this blog by virtue of a Google search on their last name. Nate left a comment with us.
I just googled my last name Neumiller and a picture of my dad came up on this site! Cool stuff! My dad was having a lot of connectivity issues with his computer and iPhone which is the reason he wasn’t able to update his blog daily!
My dad updated his blog all the way through his trip.
He made it to Pueblo, CO and my cousin met him there and they drove a truck to the Oregon Coast. My dad was running out of time off of work and had a shoulder bothering him (Go figure that…a shoulder hurting from a guy who peddles his bicycle with his arms!
)
My dad is hoping to either complete the entire trip again or he is going to start from Pueblo, CO and ride the part of his trip he had to skip. Either way your encouragement and inspired stories would be much appreciated! He’s still riding 18 miles to work and 18 miles back almost everyday!
Thanks for your interest in my dad’s awesome journey!
Nate
Thanks for stopping in and leaving us a note. Your dad is a true inspiration. We look forward to reading more about his cycling, albeit all by hand. The best to you and your family. –jim

We have not forgotten my quadricycle, Fargo. Last I posted, Ashley had just received, 09/09, the cage for modification to reduce weight and a few other adjustments. He is still working at it. Yesterday, he share his thoughts:
We are going to completely redesign the cage.
I’d like to come back to a point with an integrated tail fin.
Still have cargo room in the back though.
Making it split down is going to be tough as we want to keep it as light as possible and any junctions need bracing although we are working on some ideas.

I stand ready the see what he comes up with. This time, there is absolutely no hurry. Thanks Ashley!
