good bye summer, hello fall ....

Some things just don't belong together

one-of-a-kind

Don's velomobile is peddle-powered, uses a very-long bicycle chain, and has a battery-powered assist for hills. His Dutch model was built for racing and has reached 70mph on a downhill run. The "skin" is a very thin fiberglass. I caught him at Magnuson Park before he headed home on the Burke-Gilman Trail and on to Magnolia where he lives. Look for Don in his bright yellow cocoon. He's one of only 2,400 velomobiles in the world he said.
