Pretty obvious that guy doesn't live below the Mason-Dixon line It would be hot in there with the sun out.

Naw -- the cool thing about riding a 'bent trike or a velomobile is that so many people have never seen one on the road... So the immediate reaction is "whoa, what's that - let me keep my distance"

At least that has been my (limited) experience on tadpole trikes And I've heard the same thing from the trike community

With proper ventilation (and clothing), fully "sealed" HPVs aren't too bad. Unless you're at a stand still. It's no climate controlled car, but it's enjoyable If you're in the Central Florida area - there will be an HPV challenge/competition in a few weeks at UCF... If you're in the area, I'm sure you can coax someone to let you ride their vehicle (mind you - these are all non commercial hand made prototypes - so be careful).

Looks good and if you are young, in a mild climate, and have the money to buy it it works. It would not work here in the mountains of Northern California. A logging truck would blow you off the road and you would end up in the river or plowed in the side of the hill.
