Shall we have a new collective noun for recumbents - a squadron?
For a mix of delta and tadpole trikes properly arranged for compactness

Correct. Back at Larrington Towers is my "Vulture Squadron On Tour In
Germany" T-shaped shirt, dating from shortly after the 1992 European HPV
Championships, when we were fed almost exclusively on horrible cheese.
Imagine, flogging all the way down to Munich and not even /seeing/ a
sausage! Bah!--
