Good evening,
I don't usually make a big deal about my new bike purchases but this one is unique - and practical. It's a carbon homebuilt (~2000) made by John Tetz of the Metro (NY) Area Recumbent Society (MARS). I picked it up in Raleigh NC where Roger Vale had taken it after purchasing it but deciding not to keep it. I'll be using it to make the regular commute from the shop to Wadestown. There is a detailed construction history at this link: http://www.recumbents.com/mars/pages/proj/tetz/OFS/projtetzOFS.html
Come by the shop next week if you're interested in seeing the real thing. I took it on a magnificent ride today.
Tomorrow I'll be in Charlottesville, VA to attend Bike League instructor training with a group of other Morgantown cyclists getting their LCI certification. I'll be back on Sunday. In the meantime John Dorsey is handling the shop and you can call him at the regular number if you need to get in outside regular hours.
