Say what you will about recumbent riders. It takes a lot of confidence for those little guys to straddle their orthopedic bikes and ride in public knowing that they’re being laughed at by every human and dog that crosses their path. And now someone developed this water recumbent to give those scrappy fellows something to do while the rest of us paddle canoes and kayaks. The Performance Water Cycle costs $3000 plus $700 for delivery, so about the same as a high end kayak or jet ski.

That’s some goofy looking thing. I’d like to see some assclown try to punch thru the surf in one of those. Also, what happens when the wind blows?
There are already guys here in Seattle that ride across from Alkai Beach to downtown Seattle for their commute. Laugh all you want, but it is faster than driving!
I used to laugh at every strange looking thing, too–and then I had my thirteenth birthday.
Does it still require a beard to own an operate like its land-based cousins?
