Subject: Re: Trikes:'Bents increasing?

I can sit for hours in recumbent position and never
feel any strain in my neck. I try sometimes to use the
headrest on my velo, but it is only useful when
standing still. While riding the "rest" will knock my
head around, not comfortable at all.

It is an usual comment from people that they think the
recumbent position looks uncomfortable because of the
bent neck. If you are trained to sit very straight in
a chair, I do think it can be a problem, because you
try to have a straight neck even in recumbent
position. I wonder how those peopel use a comfy sofa
or armchair... poor ones.
