Dear Jobst,

Here's a double-size picture of the rocket recumbent with dreadfully
artistic lines and angles calculated off x-y pixel positions.

If anything, it looks as if it would brake even better than I
originally thought--about a 50 degree angle from COG to contact patch
versus 61 degrees for the upright with an almost identical wheelbase
in "Bicycling Science."

Dear Carl,
The seat height will be about an inch lower than the top of the seat
cushion for an average rider (and lower for one who consumes an
excessive amount of sucrose sweetened torroidal foods).

As for Tom's elusive blue Dragonflyer, there are a dozen lurid
views he

Weird-lookin' thing!
But you must appreciate the OEM custom Phil Wood hubs (each worth at
least 4 Roadmaster Mt. Fury's).

Dear Tom

The Fury Roadmaster, however, is still in production
