I am going to make a Velomobile. I have built 5 different recumbent trikes. Now I am going to take one of my trikes and build an airodynamic shell around it to make a velomobile.
Here is the official definition of a velomobile.
Velomobile: A velomobile or bicycle car is a human-powered vehicle, enclosed for aerodynamic advantage and protection from weather and collisions. They are derived from recumbent bicycles and tricycles, with the addition of a full fairing (aerodynamic shell).

Added a top
I decided to put a top on the velomobile. It makes it more streamlined and provides wind and sun protection. It works good and didn't restrict my visibility at all

I like that back view. It really looks streamlined.
Hi Gerry, I live up here in Ontario, Canada and Winter is almost upon us. I ride everyday to and from work.
I would like to build my own DIY velomobile similar to the above photos. Something simple.
Would you please email me how I can make a cover for my recumbent trike, Trident Spike?
My email: rbernar6@gmail.com, thank you.
