A velomobile is a type of human powered vehicle that offers significant weather and crash protection and cargo carrying capacity through use of a composite shell. The machine we aim to produce also permits substantially greater speeds (or equivalent speeds with less effort) through a carefully designed aerodynamically efficient shape. The use of three wheels also provides greater stability in marginal weather conditions. I’ve set up an on-line survey to help assess the potential market for these machines in North America as part of this effort. As cyclists, I value your feedback and hope that you will take a few minutes to complete the survey which is located at: www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=721561228701 If you’d like to learn more about velomobiles in general, please visit my website at www.velomobiles.net. Thanks for your participation. Sincerely, Ethan Davis Wildfire Human Powered Vehicles

I for one would be interested in something like that. However, that being said,
I wont shell out thousands so that I can have a pedal car... for me to be
interested in it it must be about the cost of a low end "road bike". somewhere
between 600-1000.00 $ for me to consider it...
