In mid-July while travelling through California I was able to stop in Lompoc CA and visit the Lightning Cycle Dynamics factory.

Here is Tim Brummer and I holding the nose cone of my soon to be F-40.

The F-40 was being built so various pieces of it were in different sections of the factory.

Here is the tail frame assembly: (notice the Lightning X-2 hanging from the ceiling)

The P-38 frame had just been powder coated and pieces were hanging from a drying rack:

Visiting the factory was very cool!

Thanks Tim and company for showing me around.

Recumbents, trikes & velomobiles.

This blog is about my adventures with my family, friends, bikes, planes and career. 

In 2010 I started riding again after many years of inactivity. First a recumbent trike, then a series of recumbent two wheelers and finally moving to velomobiles.

In 2009 I got my private pilot instrument rating and a DiamondStar DA-40. Now I fly a Cessna Corvallis TTx.
