#recumbent — Public Fediverse posts

Heute ein Treffen in #behringersmühle auf Kaffee und Kuchen. Wir waren 8 #velomobil e, 2 #recumbenttrike und 1 #liegerad.
Die B470 war im Rahmen des Marathons in der #fraenkischeschweiz gesperrt für Krafverkehr, so konnten wir mal die komplette Fahrbahn nutzen. Mit dabei waren unter anderem @radlpit und @s_masto .

Thank you to the two folks who bought my music during Bandcamp Friday and helped me towards paying down some disability-related costs!

Thanks to the other swell person who contributed directly via https://paypal.me/plantedu !

First ride after tube replacement went well. I checked all the tire pressures. I knew some would need it because I checked the good front tire yesterday and it was down. And then my mini-compressor needed charging again before I could get to the desired pressure. But the one installed yesterday and pumped by hand by the mech was a bit low as well, and the rear one needed more.

Hard as rocks ride (I wish I could have afforded full suspension), but no flats!

@JillsJoy Thanks. If you can see my reply to my toot, I made an update from Schwalbe, who made that very suggestion!

So if I can source it where I am, I'll be getting that put in. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

@ascentale From the answer, it sounded to me like speed/acceleration is a factor. That is, motorization makes it so the rim can go faster than the tube is going unless you create more friction that grabs the tube. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

OK, here's an update from Schwalbe US (where I had previously made a contact so I had an email).

They offered to make good on it even though they are saying this is something common on many tubes with e-cycles.

Got a question, but I suspect tonight's #BikeNite queue is full and I need an answer quicker than next week:

If you ride your cycle ~ every other day, how often should you be checking your tire pressure?

Registrations are now open for the next British Human Power Club race meet at Colchester Sports Park on the 9th of August. Nice smooth tarmac, good sightlines and sensible* corners make it the opposite of last weekend's twisty silliness at Hereford and Evesham. I'm also hoping that August means it won't be stupidly cold, like it was when we last went there in 2022 and I had to un-jam my chain with frozen fingers.

* For certain values of sensible: There's a steep embankment on the outside of the hairpin to keep things interesting if you overcook it.

The 2026 British Human Power Club race meet calendar is now complete:

Note that due to the high entry fee and limited numbers the Derby Velodrome event is unofficial, and will not earn championship points. It's a rare opportunity to ride something other than a conventional track bike on an indoor velodrome.

After the popularity of the (narrow, twisty) track at Hereford, we're doing a double-bill with the similar track at Evesham. Should be good fun for the un-faired and multitrack riders.

And we've managed to secure exclusive use of the (eyewateringly expensive) Betteshanger Park track for a weekend in September. Not a full World Championships, but we hope that some riders from continental Europe will take the opportunity to come over to enjoy the track, which with its long swooping curves and good sight-lines is well suited to faster machines.

I went for a short bike ride around the neighbourhood this afternoon, going through a few foresty areas on the way.

At one point I stopped to look around a second hand shop and spotted lots of identical DVDs, but also found a copy of the old 80s BBC series "Edge of Darkness", which has to be worth another viewing.

Oh, and DVDs from second hand shops are absolutely the best way to consume movies and old TV series, completely without enriching revolting billionaires like those who run services like #netflix .
