Hello all MARS-members!



I am a actice bent-user (and a small producer) from Finland.



I am visiting NYC 20-25th Dec as a tourist with my adult son (he is

playing ice hockey in Hershey PA). We are staying in a Manhattan Hotel

(Muse).



---

For 5 or 6 years ago we were doing the same trip and then we had a

plan to meet a few recumbent owners i Central Park BUT  a very bad

snow storm made the meeting impossible....



--



I suppose many of bent people have stored their vehicles over the winter?



And this Xmas week will be busy for even recumbists?



Anyway.



Just let you know that bents are, little by little, slowly beeing more

popular in Europe, an in Finland. Perhaps there is now some hundreds

bents in Finland.



I am producing a trike called "Härmäpyörä". Not a big business, more a hobby.



Here some pictures:

HärmäPyörä is the first and only fabically produced  Finnish recumbent.



Tapio Osala is the "father" of the project.

The price of a standard PampasPed is  2377 € excl. VAT .

It has 3x8 gears with Nexus8 on back wheel. Back wheel 26"and 20"

front wheels. Drumbrakes on front wheels, weighs  about 25 kg's.

The Härmäpyörä is manufactured in Vaasa, Western Finland.
