    Ride it become one with the bike and practice in an empty parking lot to hone your skills.

    :welcome4: Wayne! I had not heard of the speed/orbit/cyrstal Ross, so I had to go look it up and added a LINK into your post above so others would know what it was as well. :wink9: (Btw, that's not Wayne's bike/page, but they had done a review on it and seemed to be the most complete info I could find about such.)

    Btw, what led you to go for two wheels over three?

    Just felt to low down and to vunrable! although it was a lot easier to start of at junctions than the 2 wheeler, but then I am still getting used to it, but I domfeel safer on the roads

    Welcome, looks like a nice bike you have there. Short wheel base recumbents are nice and easy to steer and those with the smaller front wheel are even more so. Enjoy! Post some pictures when you get a chance.

    You might try over at bentrideronline I know there are some UK riders that post there.
