I love my Cruzbikes and want to help others discover a recumbent bike that offers comfort, speed, and hill climbing ability in addition to increased safety over a standard bicycle. I took a chance on a Cruzbike having never tried one after Maria Parker won the Ride Across America race. I reasoned that if she was able to win her category after a disastrous beginning that put her 24 hours behind then this was a bike I needed to try.
