OK, you posted this ages ago and I am just finding it now in 2019, but...wow! You are absolutely hurtling along. It is hard, from where I am sitting (staring at my laptop screen - jaw agape) that it is possible to propel yourself at such speeds with just pedal power. You have convinced me that the velomobile is a viable alternative to the bicycle, especially for a commute. My daily is comparable to yours, 50 km 2 or 3 times a week and 30 km for the remainder. I think, from what I have been able to gather, even now, still the MilanSL is still the one to pilot if you really want to go like a rocket. Thanks for the upload - still there all these years later!

Whenever I'm Down I look here to see where Ive been and What I can accomplish Such a Awesome Experience !

Fantastic build, nice to see it in action! (For those who haven't seen it, Lee documented the fairing construction on the British Human power Club website, bhpc dott org -- search for "Lee Wakefield 4-Week Fairing". The entire front fairing lifts for easy in and out.)

Wow Lee! Reward for a long climb.

This was such a Fun, fast and dangerous run .... you only live once though ...

Hi there, Are you still riding your velomobile? If so, I wanted to inform you the Velo-city conferences will be organized in France next year. Velo-city is the main event for institutional urban cycling policy. As there should be some velomobile or recumbent presentations we plan to show off at Velo-city through a velomobile meeting. Velomobiles would get from all over Europe and meet in Angers for a alltogether ride to Nantes on June 1st. Of course, we will try to get a media coverage. Then, there would be another together ride in Nantes on June 2nd, which is the opening day of Velo-city event. The aim is to get more attention from the politics and the cycle path designers on velomobile and recumbent specificities. We expect 30 velomobiles, maybe more. => would you like to join us? Do you know other velomobiles or recumbent owners in UK who could be interested in such an event? Any help is welcomed!

I bet riding one those these down Porter's Pass or the Otira Gorge where I live would be equal parts hilarious and terrifying.

With a great music it would be so much better! I think it can be done simply in youtube interface without losing to many times. I'd like to have one here in Brazil but it may cost twice the price in other countries :-/

Looks like he's heading east from just north of the Belchford turn.

Thanks for writing about your building process.. Great job!

Do you use an Eco Speed electric pedal assist? If not, look into it could benefit you in the long run.

LEE rokin the Pass ....of course he climbed it that kid is Burley ! Go lee go .... it was an honor to meet you sir...

Very ennoying commute, too much cars, flat road, trucks.

Helmet camera balance when pedaling.

Sweet Daniel!

Yep, I climbed up all the way from Missoula, MT using I90 and US12

The Milan, what a beautiful machine. How does it compare to a Quest? Thanks for the experience, mate!

I hope that by now you some lights and indicators on that thing??

Are you using a helmet camera or is it mounted on the Milan itself?

Looks much more stable, dual lock is ace isn't it :)

Nice descent but I wonder, did you climb it before going down? :)

Was your ride north to south by any chance? I'd be interested to know where you started and finished.

Glad you are OK. Cause? Fairing touched the pavement taking traction from the wheel? Is the aerodynamic gain worthextra weight? What about crosswinds? Thank you.

Trully wild! one can almost get that "intense rush" feeling watching the speed, awesome video! :D

Thanks Lee ! While getting ready for my decent down this pass A Badger Ran along side My ride for a short bit before heading back into the woods I took this as a Sign to use caution here on the decent....what a beautiful ride Fast!

Excellent. As fun as the high speed version of this part of the road, I do like this one better. You guys were flying.

Lee, that's an amazing descent!!! Thank you for documenting it so well. My Quest never went out of the Netherlands so far, so I could never experience such a great descent! I hope there will be a European version of ROAM.

Right. I was kinda thinkin' that. Thanks. And there it is, in the title. It's been a long day. @ : (

@palmvictory I'm assuming he's on ROAM, by the presence of the Quattro velomobile at 4:08 (rolloveramerica dot eu)

Smokin' Buddy...and so smooth! Looks like a well-maintained road with no SURPRISE holes to contend with. MacDonald Pass will have to go on my list of destinations for an "Ideal Descents" vacation. How do you happen to be in the States? Thought you were in UK. : )

Sweeeet!

@CDickFly These type of bikes would not be legal in the tour de france recumbents are not allowed. It is a pity because they are faster.

we were the sharks team that went either before you i think it was, we were number 21!

congrats!

63.7mph

What speed did you get up to?

Well done Lee!!! From Roadrunner

Great to see this from the riders view. Ive seen you around town lee but your way to fast for me to take pics...lol keep up the good work

Nice run, Mate!

Great Ride! What trike were you on? I saw the TdF, but it was neat getting a racer's perspective on it. Thanks for the ride.

Just discovering your vids. Loving them! I am an aspiring Quest owner. Presently piloting a Catrike 700, a hardtail trike. Can't wait for my first suspended vehicle. Do you mention what camera you're using? Nice and smooth footage.

Very cool! Was that open to anyone? Did they stick a speed limit on it? Noticed you and the other 'bent set off the safety speed sign. :)

Lee That was very Cool. Great Video I found the route map on line.

WOW! Those slaloms can be tricky. Are they to show maneuverability on top of speed? We have "Gravity Races" here but they are coasting down hill, have to have 4 wheels on the ground in any configuration and rider and machine cannot exceed 350 lbs.

top work !!

Nice run lee.. what was your top speed?

It looks like a fabulous sweet!

Looks like a nice run.. Going to be fun in the boxcart, how will you handle the bit that goes up hill :D ** **yes I know it won't be all of it

That is so cool Lee. A much needed Quest Fix as I await my own North American Quest from Blue Velo. Keep them coming David

pity I didnt have a velomobile up and running. But then I still wouldnt have kept up anyway.. At least I got away first :D
