Ymte & Sons
Ymte Sijbrandij won the uphill race, then rode down, picked up his two sons and rode up again as the stragglers gasped their way to the top! The velomobile is the new Quest, with the mid-drive eliminated, and with larger wheels.

How many pictures can you take of 43 velomobiles parked in front of a picturesque castle? Too many, but it's hard to choose among them. A film clip overview is [url=http://www.velomobiling.net/albums/FilmClipsSept05/VMGiessen5.mov]here[/url]

Album: Afternoon on Saturday, getting ready to leave Giessen
Everyone enjoyed standing in the sun, talking, and admiring velomobiles. A few passersby stopped to look and ask questions, often about the trikes rather than the velomobiles.

Album: Riding out of Giessen on Saturday
With 47 riders, we had trouble staying together as we left town. The green lights were brief, and we had to reassemble frequently. Out in the country, the long line of velomobiles was easier to manage.
