Laidback Bike Report Recumbent news, views, and interviews webcast live every month. Recumbent bike riding is about people. That's the basis of the Laidback Bike Report.

Our goal is to promote recumbent cycling in all its forms by connecting with people that form the bent riding, building, and reporting community. Bent riders have cool bikes, go to interesting places and have fascinating stories to tell. Sure, we'll talk about bent issues and news. Yes, we'll take a look at hardware and have tips and tricks you can use each month. But our show is built around the

interviews. We will continue to get the personal side from recumbent folks adventure riding around the world. We will delve into the minds of industry leaders, shop owners, and event organizers who are hoping to attract your attention with their wares. We'll ask them to turn their cameras around and show us their surroundings, facilities, or latest prototype. This is how we hope to make our show worthy of an hour of your precious time every month. We do this broadcast live so that we can see your comments and have your questions answered on the spot. This is an interactive endeavor and is not complete without audience participation. Please join us every month as we bring you our very best attempt at the Laidback Bike Report.

Wally Swarchuk took 20 years to design and build his dream . This retired geography teacher from Canada began with no skills or experience with building bikes. He taught himself to weld and experimented with many prototypes before coming up with his current Tilt4orce Velocar. We hear his incredible story and then have our old friend Dr. Craig Cornelius evaluate this project using his many years of experience building his own tilting trikes.

Finally, our own bent triathlete Larry Seidman gives us a report from the 2025 Senior Games held near Des Moines, Iowa last summer.
