Or oncoming carts passing other carts, pedestrians etc. and whipping back over 5 feet in front of you. The worst was on a curved street in our village when we were both almost taken out by a speeding contractors van trying to short cut the curve completely on our side of the street. Thought long and hard about it but decided to sell the trikes and they are now in another state. Good luck!

Wow! Smart move but too bad you had to do that. I am always concerned when I see a recumbent bike because they’re not always easy to see. Seems especially dangerous when a regular bike is riding with the recumbent. Drivers are not expecting the low rider to be there. I’ve seen them suddenly appear from behind a parked car when following the regular bike. Not easy to see and more likely to be run over.
