Crazy Recumbent Trike/Tricycle

I've been obsessing over recumbent bikes lately. Could be the thought of a cool breeze tickling hot and sweaty balls, or the golden brown upper leg tan only achieved by having your shorts creep slowly back towards you with every peddle stroke, maybe it's just the pure freedom---like taking an X-Wing out for a spin in the deep recesses of space.
Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to be a retired Navy cook, or a champion Shih Tzu breeder, or a college professor to own and enjoy a recumbent bike. Just this morning I came across a craigslist post for a reclined seating bicycle perfect for retards and hippies.

Maybe you are really, really old, or just so gone you can't even feel your face; that doesn't mean you can't be mobile in style. The low seating height and step-through frame technology make it almost impossible to be too physically/mentally challenged, or plastered to get on this thing. The Eames style seat keeps you upright no matter how limp your spine, while the comfortable ape-hanger grips help you stay in control and aid in the circulation of blood to the heart and brain---keeping you alive, and healthy! The handy rear basket is perfect for transporting air tanks, nitrous tanks, pony kegs, hookahs, defibrillators, kittens, or smoke machines. Best of all, the bike can never breakdown, it just turns into a wheelchair! Indeed you will be the talk of the retirement/drum circle community on your new Crazy Recumbent Trike/Tricycle.

podium!

I'd just like to say that nothing airs out my junk like a good cruise on my recumbent. It's also a great way to repel the opposite sex.

hard to wheelie, but maybe its the challenge thats appealing, what gear would be ideal for all day wheelies?
