recumbent trike Paradise Mt Rainier

This is a recumbent trike ride from Paradise to Longmire in early October. The video begins and closes with some stills and switches to video for the descent. The ride is unique in that you can travel the entire distance without pedaling. I held the speed down to 35 mph because I was steering and braking with one hand and holding the camera with the other (and because that is the speed limit.)
