Well, I'll probably join you - if you are not driving too fast.

OK, although I have to go pretty much my own speed, at least in the beginning to reach Jönköping in time and without wasting too much of my limited riding power.

Laziness is my main reason for driving a recumbent.

For me recumbent has made it possible to ride long trips. With upright bike this kind of thing would be too painful. Last year i was tired in the end, but had no problems otherwise. After the bus/boat ride to Finland i rode about 80 km to my home. The first 50 km felt good, but then i started to feel some pain in knees, probably because i did not have any water to drink.
