Velomtek Now in USA and Carbontrike Back in Business!

Manufactured in Montreal the VT1 velomobile from Velomtek is in production and is now available to buyers in the USA. CEO Francois Garneau gives us a close up look at this amazing vehicle then shares the details of their process for purchasing via pickup or delivery. Lars Viebke started Carbontrike in Sweden years ago before entering into a collaboration with Bacchetta in 2018. Fast forward past Bacchetta's sale and split up into bike and trike business, covid complications and visa nightmares and today Lars is back up and running in Florida. He brings us up to date on this exquisite carbon fiber trike and his plan for sales and development in the future. The Florida Senior Games were held in December and bents were very well represented in the biking category. Our own Larry Seidman brings us his report on the riders and results from the competition in the Sunshine State. 00:00:00 Intro 00:00:48 What’s on Today’s Show 00:02:10 Panel Introduction 00:04:20 Sponsor Introduction 00:07:05 Carbontrike Back in Business with the CT 2.0-Lars Viebke CEO 00:48:20 Velomtek VT1 Velomobile Now in the USA-Francois Garneau CEO 01:55:25 Florida Senior Games-Bent Rider Report-Larry Seidman 02:02:15 Sponsor Thanks 02:04:50 Announcements 02:06:10 Goodbye to panel and crew Please subscribe to us on YouTube (https://goo.gl/CHOOgX) and Like us on Facebook (  / laidbackbikereport  ) if you haven't already done so.
