One couple from Florida riding Greenspeed Trikes! I have one and it is a  
great ride, but how did they fare in the rain and traffic of bicycles?

Hi  Clay,   How was your ride?    I was there too...cold and  wet like  
everybody.

I kept an eye out for all trikes, but  only saw one, and I didn't think  
it was you.  It was the
old  couple from Florida on the Greenspeed.

I probably saw a couple of you guys on  the ride--I passed a cattrike and a 
volae fairly early on, and i saw some  people on a tandem cattrike like 
device (I didn't catch the label due to the  rain and mud). I also saw a young 
woman riding a Linnear, a prototype SWB with  underseat steering. She said 
it was being developed out of the Bicycle Man  shop in Alfred Station. I was 
on a V-Rex with a yellow tailback.

The  rain started really pelting down around 11, and the folks I was with 
at that  time just started hammering to get to the bridge (I was on the BQE 
somewhere  around Bay Ridge at the time). It was my first group ride on the 
V-Rex and I  was really pleased--extremely stable at speed, and manuverable 
as all get out.  Acceleration from a standing stop is pretty solid, too--I 
was passing the  carbon roadbikes as?their riders?struggled to click in on the 
pedals and never  looked back.

I'd like better weather next  time...

I won't be able to make it as I'll be  in Europe, but wanted everyone to 
know that there is a Chinatown bus that goes  there (Apex).

Rich, Would you (or anyone  else) like to share a motel room for 2 nights in
State College? I was there  last weekend for a family get-together and 
stayed at
the Autoport motel,  which was a good place to stay. It's located near the 
RBR
Bent shop, a  couple of miles from where the rally meets. --Steve
