Why Tim Rides an HP Gekko 26

Hi, I’m Tim! I switched from a road bike to a recumbent trike 4 years ago. Initially the change was prompted by a move to Colorado and an elevation of 7,200 feet. I would run out of air on a hill and after catching my breath couldn’t restart going up hill.

I discovered the “magic” of stability since at the age of 74 my reflexes are a little slower and my neck and back couldn’t be happier with the change. The comfort is amazing and encourages me to ride more frequently and further.

Following a knee replacement surgery I found that the recumbent trike is an excellent knee rehab tool as well. My knees, back and heart are all MUCH happier with the change.

A recumbent trike is the way to go!

No regrets just a BIG SMILE!!
Tim
