Off-roading on a Kettwiesel

I just have to share this:

Yesterday I did a twenty mile ride in the hills of South Wales ( UK ) on a Hase Kettwiesel RIDE.
Nearly 1000 feet of climbing, and as many of descent

What a blast. This bike is built with BMX rims and has a differential.
TWO powered wheels. This means that major hill climbs including really gnarly sections of rock strewn singletrack are accessible and even fun. The flatter uphill sections you can power up through.
Loose gravel and rocks? Not a problem.

And downhill!! oh my days!! You can twitch your hips and set up 3-wheel drifts to help get you round corners.

The worst section was returning along the vally bottom at the side of this beautiful Salmon river ( the Wye Valley ) cos the trail is just long-grass, and not a trail at all. And mostly overgrown with brambles full of thorns. The kind where even the horses walk on tiptoes.

I dont want to work today.
I want to go and ride this recumbent trike off-road!

Thanks for listening, its good to share!!

The 20" wheel is king!

Good to hear I am not the Only KW rider. Mine doesn't have the 'dual drive' but it moves too. Deltas are great.

Hi there,
I saw your article about downhilling on a Ride. Sounded great. Have been \\
considering Kettwiesel Ride or KW with diff but wanted to know whether yours has derailleur or Nexus and/or Mountain drive.

You're probably young, fit, strong and very able to push the heavy Ride uphill. I'm female, early 60s, reasonably fit but not used to long mileages lately. How would the weight of the Ride affect me?

Also with all that extra junk added (+ titanium boom for wt reduction!!!) it would be even heavier!!

Oh, man, I want pictures! Sounds like a lot of fun.
