Greetings From Washington and Question
Greetings, I'm new to this forum and my wife and I are about to purchase two recumbent trikes.
Does anyone have any recommendation between a 5.5.9 and a Dumont? My wife and I are looking to get two for riding along the Olympic Discovery Trail, over 100 miles on a paved trail, and also many different surfaces. Any suggestions between the two?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Welcome! The recumbent forum people will be glad to help. I own a trike but it’s an ICE so not qualified to answer but the people in the bent forum will.
