Ron Thompson is a retired mechanical engineer. He's built a 2 wheeled bent he believes is the 4th major breakthrough in bicycle design. That's a lofty assessment but you owe it to yourself to hear him out. The ability to recruit supplemental hand power on a recumbent bike is the intriguing innovation he'll discuss with us today. 

The sale of Bacchetta Cycles was in the news since our last webcast. We have former CEO Mark Swanson and new owner Dana Lieberman with us for interviews. Along with the rest of the recumbent news is Honza Galla.

The LBR Review Team is back with Peter Stull doing a review of the Greenspeed Magnum BW and Larry Varney evaluating the Steintrike Wild One.

Nina Paley follows with her experience buying and upgrading a used Calfee Stilletto.
