Velomobiles
Velomobiles were a natural step in the evolution of recumbents.
A velomobile is really a ‘bicycle car’ driven by human power.
Velomobiles are terrific vehicles for commuting because they are enclosed for protection from inclement weather and can be equipped with an electric assist motor to make life a little bit easier.
The first velomobiles were developed by Charles Mochet in 1924. (see Bicycle History)
