Tilt4orce Velocar-The All Weather Trike!
from Laidback Bike Report · host Gary Solomon
Wally Swarchuk took 16 years to design and build his dream . This retired geography teacher from Canada began with no skills or experience in building bikes. He taught himself to weld and experimented with many prototypes before coming up with his current Tilt4orce Velocar. We hear his incredible story and then have our old friend Dr. Craig Cornelius evaluate this project using his many years of experience building his own tilting trikes.Finally, our own bent triathlete Larry Seidman gives us a report from the 2025 Senior Games held near Des Moines, Iowa last summer.00:00:00 Intro00:00:30 What’s on Today’s Show00:01:50 Panel Introduction00:03:30 Sponsor Introduction00:06:20 Honza Galla with Recumbent News Segment00:09:13 Tilt4orce Velocar Project with builder Wally Swarchuk00:40:25 Tilting Trike Concepts and Tilt4orce Pros and Cons with Craig Cornelius01:27:20 Sports Report-2025 Senior Games with Larry Seidman01:31:53 Sponsor Thanks01:34:40 Announcements01:36:10 Goodbye to panel and crewPlease subscribe to us on YouTube (https://goo.gl/CHOOgX) and Like us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/laidbackbikereport/) if you haven't already done so.
