| My Name Is Mark I'm 40-ish and have always been a biking enthusiast. I Enjoy 12 to 30 mile rides In the bay area. My wife rides a Re-bike 818 but the pace is too slow, we ride together and other times i want a strenuous work out. I have a Slingshot Masa, This is a three wheel set up, I would like to ride with like minded individuals, preferably Tadpole riders, because there's a good chance we'll be traveling about the same speed. Those upright bikes climb hills to quickly, & I hate to slow anyone down going up -only to pass them going down on the other side. Ride or die trying Bay area Full Recumbent riders needed Thanks Mark |

| The two Marks will cause confusion to this old man. One of the Marks should be called MarkI and the other MarkII.  _________________ Bill from Sebastian Giant OCR2 Mongoose Switchback Cruzbike Conversion " Pain is only temporary, quitting is forever." Lance Armstrong www.slrsci.com/ |

Well, From MarkIII here (also a newbie!) - I just had to reply. I haven't heard anyone in my recent memory refer to a cleft lip as a harelip! From those of us who have a cleft lip & palate (I do) , I take small exception to this irreverence, simply because I was taunted with that epithet for much of my young life.
Now that I've got that out of the way. I roomed in college with two other guys named Mark believe it or not - people referred to us as the 3M company!

Hehe - I think we saw ourselves as the "recording tape" kind of guys (3M brand cassette & reel to reel) One was shipped to Germany in the Army Ordinance branch, one became a doctor, and then there's me...now a recumbent geezer, civil servant, back to the lander (live in a dome in the country)...
