I'm still getting inappropriate listings. This is the first thing I have opened from the site since I rode in May. It is very diappointing that people are...
Sorry, but I missed deleting the member who made yesterday mornings' post. I deleted the message from the board but couldn't stop the email. We are trying to...
I must say that I was one of the "crashes" on the RR Tracks. It was quite a sight (so my buddy tells me). I rode my recumbent (Rans V2) and it whipped me...
My impression of recumbents is that they are safer in a fall because you don't fall as far down as from a standard bike. Maybe you could describe why you feel...
I am not the most coordinated person in the world and I am still struggling with keeping the recumbent under control, especially at low speeds.--- Brad Bolton...
Paul - I tried a recumbent once, and I oversteered so much I couldn't ride it. The owner said it takes about a half hour to get used to it, but I felt like it...
The RR tracks in question has nothing to do with your style of bike. Mr. Bolton is correct on every point with how to negotiate a set of tracks. Especially...
Bill, Your observations are very valid but let me tell you that I was one of those who also went down on the tracks. I was going slow and at right angle and...
To Whom It May Concern, Let me first introduce myself. I am Kim Bauer, Portsmouth Director. I have been reading all of the concerns of the Rushtown Crossing....
Thanks Kim. You folks do a great job of warning riders about the tracks. Some riders just won't listen & insist on learning the hard way. Now, if you could...
I have logged in 900 miles on the bike and still tend to oversteer at low speeds. Also, I cannot seem to maintain a good average speed on the bike. I...
Kim: You (plural, as in all who make TOSRV a success every year) do a *great* job every year; some things are just beyond reasonable control. My own personal ...
Hello TOSRV Riders: I have started and completed 26 TOSRVs, (that means both ways, Saturday and Sunday) with my first TOSRV being in 1972. I can tell you that ...

A quick question on recumbent bikes. I just got a Sun EZ Sport a good month ago and have ridden it a good 20-30 miles now. Once you get over the difference in...
Hi Kim, I agree that you guys do the best job with those tracks. I don't blame anyone for my minor accident. I was going so slow because I was pretty sure...
Howdy: I have 19 complete tours under my belt and have always respected the tracks, and people around them. I almost bought the farm this year as a person...
I am 45 and and carry more weight than I should. I had sold my road bike thinking recumbent was the answer for my aching back. I have logged abour 750 miles...
I know it is not the bike, I think I was a bit say "bonky" at the time and not thinking clearly as I blew by the Waverly stop as my pace was entirely too slow....
All - here is a proposal I sent to COP today. I would appreciate any advice or suggestions. ... TOSRV Director – I have ridden TOSRV for 12 years, and hope...
Dear Desperate Ground, I found your proposal and reasoning interesting and at the same time somewhat unfounded in changing the route. Since you asked for...
Chris - Your points: 1. "...roads were in very bad shape..." That is certainly a possibility that needs to be investigated, but that detour was many years...
#1. Who is in charge of setting up the structures and coordinating the festivities at the destination park in Portsmouth? I have specific questions regarding...
Dear Robert, My name is Kim Bauer, I am the Portsmouth Director. I handle the events in the park. Let me know what suggestions you have. I'm alway willing to...
Hey Pangloss, I was simply responding with my viewpoint as it was collectively asked for by the original writer of the posting, that being desparateground. I ...
Dear Robert, I believe if you call the Tour Director, they can give you the names of people to cantact regarding the stop at the park In Portsmouth. You may ...
We'll have to agree to disagree on your points, but there is one point I think you can't deny - the number of riders on TOSRV has declined steadily for at...
This past May was my first time riding the TOSRV. I've never ridden a century before this ride. I made it to Portsmouth on Saturday, but didn't do the ride...
