    While participating in the July 4th Parade in Carmel,
    Indiana the other day, I happened to spot two very
    interesting recumbents. The first was an ActionBent. Looked
    very nice, especially when you consider the price. The
    second was a somewhat familiar-looking, very low bike. Made
    by a defunct company called Earth Cycles. Brought back
    memories of the Dragonflyer that was "stolen" from me at
    auction... <g>

    I believe the "thief" is away pile driving this week. Serves
    him right I suppose.

    Oh, I forgot about that. I've got some pictures of the bike,
    too. It
    looked very nice. He'll probably want to buy it from the
    woman who owns it!

    For the record, I have never placed an eBay bid on that
    Earth Cycles Dragonflyer.

    I did end with that particular trike, however.

    Was her husband riding a Pharobike Lowfat? A very sensible
    couple to own two lowracers with ISO 305-mm/ISO 406-mm
    wheel sizes.

    It would not be fair for one person to start monopolizing
    red Sunsets.

    Actually, I think he was riding an M5. And you're right:
    you didn't place a bid for that trike.
