Building a recumbent bike

	Building Veronika	comments: juergen@magma.ca
under-seat steering linkages not shown		first draft, 26 inch wheels
Much better		second one, 20" front wheel
parts I have (red) parts I know I can obtain (green) parts I still need to find (purple)		I am not really going to paint it this colour! It will probably be bright yellow, or purple with a yellow fairing.
Yay! I got a front fork and an alloy BMX front wheel. Bought some steel for the top tube too.		I think it is starting to resemble some production bikes.
	I found some nice tie-rod ends for steering linkages. Should I go above or below the seat for steering? My tendancy is towards USS, but apparently braking safety is a bit of an issue. Maybe top mounted bars are best? I need a good set of brakes too. Some leather or sheepskin for the seat would be nice. Any leads on parts, or donations?
	Next steps: cut top tube and fit it to rear triangle collect enough parts to build up a bottom bracket (Oops, x2, and chainrings too) find some rear brakes decide on the steering linkage build a welding jig	Comments?
What? Building a logo too!		HPVoooo Logo first draft
		Logo for HPVOoO is coming along...not quite ready yet.
	Logo comments and next steps: "seat shouldn't be so reclined" (Brent). Will make it more upright. "what happened to the other small O?" (Richard). Will put it back. Yellow and blue are nice combination. Will work OK against a white, or clear background too. I think the arrow is too long and pointy. Thoughts? Next draft coming soon...or whenever I can get around to it.	What do YOU think?
