Great recumbent trike downhill run (Video)

I’m a huge fan of human powered vehicles and try to promote them when ever I can. And, because of some personal experience, I’ve also become a proponent of wearing proper protective gear while cycling.

So, when I ran across the great down hill run on a recumbent trike posted by “fumimaro029”, I really had mixed emotions. The run is great, and the fact that it was done during the rain, most likely in early summer 2007, made it even more impressive.

The only negative/downside that took the enjoyment out of it for me was the fact that the rider was only wearing sandals. Perhaps there are good reasons for just wearing sandals on a recumbent trike, I can’t be sure.
