Here's a clip from the beeb, Midlands Today programme, featuring yours truly commuting in my home made velomobile .

there's been quite a lot of publicity around it this week, with footage on ITV and several national and local newspapers!

  • Dude! Congrats! Btw, how much was your Velo? I really want one but since I'm only a high school student I got a tight budget. Got any tips?

  • @MyriadesusTV the fairing is home made, parts would cost 150 gbp or so for that, plus the trike inside.

    Several people have made their own trikes, which would reduce costs and makes a great school project!

  • if you look at my favourites, the piece filmed with the guy from Radio Wolf is on there.

    (Neil Jackson ride a velomobile)

    He played a full audio interview the following morning, but I missed it, I've been told it was really really positive

  • Thumbs up, Fards! To be honest, I was a bit surprised to see the positive attitude of the reporters versus your Velomobile. But perhaps we'll see more signs in the future how the winds are changing.

    Keep up the good work!

  • @kurt55 the reporter on the spot came across as if he wasn't interested while he was there, the cameraman on the other hand cycled to work, so was really friendly.

    the other ones that came down were really positive as well, but the ITV piece didn't come across as well as the beeb one, if it was the only report it would be fine, but a bit over shadowed.

    The guy from the local radio had a go in it, and really got what it was all about (even if it was just a roll across the car park)

see all

  • Love it!

    Love the fact they mention the C5 when that was after the first velomobiles. Pfft, philistines, haha!

  • Nice one Fards! That's actually much more stylish and nice than I had imagined.  You came across really well on TV too, most impressed!!

  • Ian!!

    You're a great ambassador.

  • Well done.
