Answer for General Set-up

Great video shot of you, Beth.   Your set up looks great.   Perfect strap placement and saddle position, and your glide gait is looking great.  You are ready to practice turns and longer rides.   With your bike shorts, you can get longer and longer rides with reasonable comfort.  Your first 20 miles will be your biggest learning miles and your first 100 will help you master many subtle techniques.  Jump off for a few minutes of walking if your butt starts to hurt.  Over time, you will grow accustomed to the saddle just as with a horse saddle.
   Adjust your seat a notch in or out to hit new pressure points, and pull your bike shorts down the legs when you stop.   Stopping occasionally like on a bike will allow you to stay out for hours eventually.  You will earn the the skills and tolerance you need to really bring out the athletic capabilities of the .GlideCycle.  You may not want to walk with mere mortals any longer as they are just too slow and ungainly.  You will find the Avatar Glider Girl in you and long for running with the wind.
Let me know when that happens!   Run hard, run long and run fast. We will be here if you have more questions along the way.

I went to meet the GlideCycle™ staff to find out what their product might be able to do for my patients... Within a short time, it became clear that the GlideCycle™ was truly changing lives...

The GlideCycle™ changed my life, and helped to transform me into an athlete.  I was struggling with an extra 50 pounds for years after a foot surgery.    GlideCycle Running was the key.  It is a new sport, and it takes due diligence to learn, but the results are wonderful.

Sincerely, Joy Houssney

I LOVE to go out and glide. I live on a flat road with two very steep hills on either side and run almost 1 1/2 miles.    Sometimes I go too fast, but my family walks with me and I go to the end and come back to them.  FUN! FUN! FUN!  I want one for over my treadmill for frozen winters and hot summers!

After only using the GlideCycle™ three times I noticed how much better I felt. I usually have to struggle to push myself out of a chair to stand, but now I can just stand right up! After only a month of using my new GlideCycle™ I was up to running 3/4 of a mile 4 times a week and now only a few weeks later I'm running 2 miles at a time! My life has changed.

Something wonderful has happened to me. Little did I know that David and his GlideCycle™ would drastically change my life... To date, I have lost 32 pounds and I am in the picture of health...

Every sports team in the world needs these.  I would still be playing football today if I had one 5 years ago.  I mean it!

We ran 17 miles with our GlideCycles™ in a recent race.  We just became sales reps in Portland, Oregon!  Awesome couples play!!!
