I saw a weird recumbent yesterday. It was propelled by a rowing machine with a sliding seat. The rider pulled on the handlebars to somehow turn a gear that moved the chain. After it passed me, I overheard a pedestrian coming from the other direction saying to his friend "..dumbest bike I've ever seen..." I couldn't disagree with him. It looked very inefficient. The rider was working very hard and not going fast at all.
