My son knows that I have been wanting a velomobile and when he saw you going down Denny in Seattle, he called me right away. Keep those video's coming, they are very interesting.

Great! So after seeing it you "youtubed"? I work just west of Key Arena. I still haven't quite worked out the best way to get from there back to the bike paths on Dexter. I don't really like being on busy streets like Denny and Mercer, so I will see what I can come up with. It was raining pretty hard today. No problem, I stayed dry, but I could feel the wind!

I accidently removed your other comment. You said...
Very sweet machine.
I noted the lights in other video's you have posted. I like all the lighting you have on it. One cannot be bright enough.
What price range are we looking at for a machine like that?

I like what the builder did with the lights too. Lots of flashing is a good thing to me.
This velomobile is priced around $6800 Canadian. The electric components are extra. It is built of kevlar with a pretty high build quality. I've owned it for about a week I guess and have about 80 miles on it.
I'm not sure I know all the right terms, but to answer your other question..

Is it a 3 speed internal hub with a cassette on the hub also?

It has a jackshaft with a 3 speed internal hub, a two ring front derailleur, and a 7 speed rear derailleur. So far I have never shifted the front ring. I mostly use the three speed hub, and secondarily use the rear derailleur.
