water bike recommendation needed
I'm looking for something I can ride on the lake that works the same
muscle group as riding a bike on the road. Basically I want to train for a bike ride at the lake without having to ride on the roads there. I've found a couple products out there and was wondering if there were any opinions on these or other products I should look at. 1. Hydrobike - basically a bike frame mounted on a couple of pontoons, single gear, I actually rented one of these and found it slower than I expected. Steering is via a blade mounted on the end of the front fork. 2. Seacycle Waterbike, more of a recumbant setup, you lean to steer this one. 3. Shuttle bike, you attach 2 inflatable pontoons to a frame and the frame gets attached to your bike. Provides all the gearing available on your bike. Of course faster is better, but I'm really looking for something I would enjoy riding for 1 - 2 hours. thanks...Chris |
