    thank you every one for all your input. I posted a continuation of this under "bikes" since I now think i'm considering 2 different bikes. Hope to hear some thoughts under that thread.

    I also just started riding again 2 years ago. I have a Specialized comfort bike which I really like. Could never ride more than 25 miles though without extreme knee pain. I tested a recumbent and it sure made a difference. The first weekend I was able to ride 25 miles on Saturday and then 38 miles on Sunday without any problems.

    Am now awaiting the delivery of my recumbent. Know I will gladly exceed my 600 miles last year in greater comfort.

    Regardless of what type of bike you get hope you are able to get out and enjoy it.

    Andi - Recumbent

    Hi, just saw your post about recumbents, and even though I just purchased a bike, I'm still looking at recumbents and trikes, they have me entriqued!

    I'm hoping on Thursday this week to get to some shops to ride a few... I sat on a couple, but was intimidated by the leaning back... any way, what recumbent did you get? also, how are you planning on transporting it? I didn't get that far but they seem wider than a regular type bike.
