	a velomobile definition page (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		When I think of a velomobile, I think of a vehicle which is primarily pedal (human) powered, and which provides weather protection to permit use in inclement weather.
		Velomobiles can offer a higher level of mobility than the motor car, need no fossil fuel, cause no pollution, have full weather protection, and have higher comfort and safety than a conventional bicycle.
		A unfaired bike could be considered a velomobile because it is a vehicle that is human powered and uses wheels.

		The modern velomobile originated in Europe and a vast majority of them are produced and used on that continent (The Netherlands has the most).
		Velomobiles aren't particularly light (60-75 pounds is average) but they are very aerodynamic and in the right terrain, they can be much faster than a bicycle.
		The Alleweder is certainly the most proven and widely used velomobile in the world and its addition to the US market at a reasonable price can only be a good thing.

	Velo3 Velomobile recumbent trike HPV (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		This velomobile design is a tadpole recumbent trike design (two front wheels steering, one rear driving wheel).
		Having such a small vehicular mass (target weight under 22kg) means that less energy is wasted powering the velomobile itself and the majority of the energy is used to propel the rider.
		The big difference between a recumbent trike and a Velomobile is that a velomobile has fairings (aerodynamic body) The front and rear fairings are made from tough but lightweight plastics and helps shield the rider from the elements, and provides aerodynamic efficiency to the velomobile making higher average speeds possible.

		I am a 5 day/week year round commuter on my Gold Rush, and have been interested for a long time in the idea of stepping up to a velomobile.
		I prefer the Quest, and after 2 years of pondering whether I would be worth one (I am not a commuter and used to cycle less than 5000 km/year), I have recently got mine after 6 months waiting.
