Recumbent Trike ride to the Cotswolds. Wiltshire Man 

Three old guys getting out and having fun paying homage to history; truely inspiring. Thanks for including us in your travels Sandy, Charles and Chris.

Wow! Those trikes look so comfy and efficient! You look very happy on it Sandy 🤗

Great video good to see you out with the lads on the trikes. You make peddling the trike look so easy and relaxed. Thanks for taking us along.

a lovely way to sit down and relax with good friends, Sandy :) Cheers for taking us along.

Another very enjoyable watch. Three chums, lovely scenery, great informative chat and I get to ‘join’ you all on your trip out. I have some old family connections with Quenington and other villages/towns around Swindon, Wilts/Glos areas so it’s nice to revisit some of these places via your vlogs. Utterly delightful 😊👍

Hi Sandy,another great video! I have been cycling for 40 years, watching you enjoying the trike has encouraged me to give it a go, luckily my neighbour has an ice trike similar to yours that he is going to let me try👍

A lovely video Sandy, as a person who has an electric trike I appreciated this. The knight’s gate looked fascinating.

Really enjoyable , for you and the viewers. If I sat in that seat and stopped pedalling I'd be in danger of falling asleep.😀

Really liking these trike videos!

One adapts as one finds necessary. It honestly takes a strong man to do this, regardless of criticism. Keep doing what you are doing. I love the biking/triking and camping videos.

Quenington. Fairford and surrounding villages are part of my usual ride from Bampton. Lovely video. Thanks for posting

Well done Sandy, that looked like a amazing ride out and as always so informative, you look like you’ve taken to the trike like a duck to water 👍😎

Sandy hi there mate great to see you out on the bike exelent video footage nice seeing making to most of the lovely weather we been having 😊

Lovely to see you out on your latest acquisition the trike wonderful. Already you look comfortable with it and enjoying the ride. Lovely adventure around some of the Cotswolds with it's lovely villages and scenery, thanks Sandy and freinds for the guided tour 👏👋

I can imagine the fun we would have had if we had those trikes as kids.

Thank you again, Sandy. I really enjoyed this. 👍🙂🚴‍♀️

Yet again you introduce me to something I knew little about Sandy. Those trikes look like instruments of torture to me so very interesting to hear you say how comfortable they are. Great video 👍🏻

Hi Sandy it was great to ride out yesterday and as always you have made a great video to show chase our local scenery and history. We are fortunate to live close to areas of national beauty such as the Cotswolds, the downs, the River Thames, Avebury and the like, all with history dating back 1000’s years, right up to present day. Much of our country side villages and towns are Trike friendly and great to explore. Long may you show case Wiltshire and surrounding county’s with your Camping, cycling and Motor bike videos.👍

Embrace the change Sandy. I bought a Moulton a year ago. A totally different riding experience, a brilliant design. Keep up the good work with your videos, you’re always a pleasure to watch.

Great video. I really enjoyed seeing you having fun on the trike. It looks more effortless than conventional cycling and yet you can still tell it’s giving you a workout.

Lovely Knights Gate. The Fresh Air outdoor sculpture Trail was in the beautiful grounds of The Old Rectory. Lynwood ☕️🍰🤩 Excellent. Your Trike Looks Great Fun.

Belated happy birthday Charles! What a lovely historic site Sandy...the one thing I do love and appreciate is history and historic buildings...they could tell some amazing stories if they could talk. Glad you all had a good and safe ride out

Always in to try something new. That's the spirit. Thanks so much for taking us with you

Hey Sandy, that's put the biggest smile on my face seeing you out riding the old trike alongside Charles. Marvellous. It looks like you've got your "recumbent legs" already. Charles is a great trike mentor for you and carries Toblerone too. Perfect. I look forward to seeing more of this three wheeled fun with you two. 73/JBJ By the way, ICE sell an offroad trike....the "Full Fat" 😎

Those recumbents are so interesting Sandy. I can see why you have added that to your transportation options. It appears to be a very relaxing experience just peddling around in one of those and not having to worry so much about maintaining a a minimum speed to maintain your balance. The trikes look much more stable than the two wheelers and much less prone to a large pebble or stick causing your steering wheel to throw you off balance and to the ground. I am quite impressed with that whole idea. This was an absolutely amazing and entertaining video here. I really enjoyed it and would definitely like to see more of them. Take care and I will see you on the next one.

❤❤❤❤ so nice .to see trikes on the road. I am hoping i xan have a go sometime . Love you guys

Yet another cracking video Sandy, you're certainly knocking them out - very enjoyable. All the very best to you and yours 👍 🍻 🍻 🍻

Thank you for such an adventurous lovely excursion via trike power!

Hi, it's a nice surprise to see a hero of mine getting addicted to recumbent trikes. Brings back memories. I now have a regular upright bicycle and a two-wheeled recumbent which I hardly ever use anymore, but once upon a time my introduction to recumbent cycling, here in the Netherlands, was an HP Velotechnik Scorpion FX. It's indeed very relaxing and much fun downhill.

Good stuff that Sandy - I've had my eye out on one of these for ages - but financially prohibitive to me just at the moment, but I'll get there. I have other things to sort first - Phase 4 of my life plan after retirement: Buy and convert a bus to a motorhome - Add e-bike (check) and buy land to build long term homestead on - then again when I start travelling, I might not want to stop. Good video pal.

Hi Sandy, another interesting video mate. I'm not much and normal bike bud, but the recumbent looks comfy ride. Regards Moose

Does look like fun. That lorry thundering by looked scary.

Fantastic, but some bright flashing lights wouldn't go amiss. Keep it up !

Brilliant Sandy

I bought my kids (twenty yesrs ago now) these things called green machines. They were trikes. Had plastic wheels and you could not ride them on road. I adjusted the seat and had a go, great fun. You could do handbrake turns in them. Felt really fast too. Happy days 😀

Lovely relaxing video Sandy and the boys there were great company for you and the viewer, I am on 63 now I wish I had your energy 😂, cheers.

Nice to see you back out on your trike sandy and.a nice bit of history tricycle looked good and you looked relaxed on it hope to see more of you maybe on your tricycle on the back if you put a back lamp on a bit of a pole that goes on and of maybe the traffic see you better stay safe and stay healthy one life enjoy blessed be

Looks like a lot of fun and could see it being quite practical for shopping and carrying stuff with a trailer. Me and the wife decided last week that as of august to sell my car and just run one car as we don’t really need two cars on the road, so might be able to convince her I need one of these

I'm glad you have found a mate to go out with on your trike, Sandy. lovely history and sightseeing & scenery 🌳, really enjoyed this one. ❤❤❤

Enjoyed this video bro, it must be good when you can sit back and let your legs do the work so you can enjoy the landscape. Safe travels. Ken.

Fantastic relaxing video Sandy 👏👏👏

Lovely relaxing video, looked like a great day out.

Very enjoyable video.

Hi Sandy - lovely to see you out and about in the Cotswolds! Glad you're enjoying the trike! I miss the Cotswolds, especially in summer even though t's beautiful where Iive too. All the best, Rob in Switzerland

Greetings from Melbourne, Sandy, and thanks for the great videos. There's a new pilgrimage route in Wiltshire that you might be interested in cycling. It's called the Athelstan Pilgrim Way around Malmesbury, and there's a map on the British Pilgrimage Trust website. The Athelstan Pilgrim Way is a new 100-mile walking and cycling route, linking all 36 historic churches in the North Wiltshire Deanery

The village that I live in is an old Polish camp. It was American before that. Getting ready for the D Day landings.

Lovely video, thanks Sandy

Some great history in this one sandy those trikes look cool come on Dave get a trike you know you want one !! Great vid sandy ♥️👍😉

Stunning villages/countryside WM. Thanks for the video 👍👌

Interesting and enjoyable, thank you

Suprised how well the Trikes seem to go. It looks like great fun, a more relaxing ride with a different view of the landscape. Really enjoyed it, thanks Sandy.

A pleasure to watch the aerodynamics are the thing look up Mike Burrows recumbent - sadly Mike passed away in 2022 and was behind many groundbraking bikes including the lotus-Anyway tree carvings are known as arborgliths (Not a well known fact) . I really enjoyed this Sandy looked like great fun 👍👍

Nice one Sandy enjoyed the video mate looks like your enjoying the recumbent

Great video again Sandy, I was out that way on Saturday, many roads were closed for resurfacing, or had just been done. Made fro some interesting riding and diversions!

Thankyou so much for introducing me to the concept of Trikes Sandy. I’ve been doing a bit of research and illustration be selling my two-wheeler and save for a trike. Probably an ICE trike. Thankyou again. It’s going to be a life saver for me ✨🫶🏻✨ Worth every £1000 I’ll be paying for it eventually. ✨🫶🏻✨

Hi Just want to say how delighted I was about you acquiring the trike Fantastic !!!!! Look forward to seeing more of your adventures on said machine I myself have long considered one Be good to get your opinion. A bit further down the road Great stuff 👍

Great to hear the kids asking if Charles was going to fix the pump.

You are some valiant fellow velonauts!

Well done guys good wee breakfast video good history lesson 👍👍 those trike's look ok 🚴🚴

👍👍👍👍👍 brilliant !

I think i would be a bit scared of the traffic being so low down . But i thing you are an amazing person

thanks for the share sandy keep up the vid you do on channel thanks lee

I have to say that trike is not for me. Love the video as usual full of history and information ! My best wishes to you all from the Philippines ❤️💪👍😉😀😁🐑🇵🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Be a good idea to put your paramotor on the back of the trike haha....You seem very contented on the trike Sandy

That looks like a very comfortable ride. I know some places that would be a perfect bit of transport. I do wish they would continue to improve the trail system here. They make some nice progress some years then appear to quit for a while. Timing to stay away from the high traffic times is pretty important here.

Great idea, but wouldn't have anywhere to put the thing. Great vid Sandy.

I am really enjoying your new form of transport, Sandy. Any chance of a video explaining how it works? I still cannot work out how you steer it. Looks great fun.

Love those historical sites! I wonder if W . Affleck is an ancestor of actor, Ben Affleck.

The more i see of trikes, the more I think I may get one at some point. I’d love to find out if there are off-road versions with thicker tyres, but would be happy navigating roads if off-road not possible. Thanks for taking us with you 👍🏼

Great video. I wonder how much weight those recumbents can lug around before you have to get off and push?

Around 10 years ago I built a recumbent tandem, my wife could not keep up!

You did well, did you find the traffic a bit unnerving? I enjoy when you talk about the history thanks😊

They look great fun, unfortunately, my area is very hilly, my driveway is 27deg said most roads.

They seem very intriguing, I'd love a go! I'm assuming it steers from the rear wheel?

Weren't recumbent bicycles nanned from competitive racing vecause they wrre too fast at one stage? Probably a 2 wheel recumbent, and not sure how long ago. But still. Shows they are good. I think i read a while back that they are also more energy efficient for the Human body too.

The guy in the blue jacket lost a wheel.

Hi sandy just out of hos hospital had a stroke. Gutted tbf but wen im on my feet would be nice to meet you

Good to see you in the armchair. How was it for comfort ?. It does look almost effortless. Good vid Sandy

👌👌🌹🌹❤❤🌷🌷👍👍

What's the average speed, I mean in comparison to your average speed on your bicycle? What do you think would be your comfortable range, again in comparison to your bicycle?

⚔️💪😎👌👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧(stroke)

I don’t think these trikes would be any good for me because I’m nosey old B and I like to look over hedges,fences and other such things. I’ll stick to my large sit up and beg style of bike.HaHa😂

Lovely Ukranian flag!

Great video Sandy, thank you for sharing your adventure, be safe my friend
