Bacchetta Bicycles

Bacchetta is a brand of recumbent bicycles based in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States. The company was founded in 2001 and it primarily makes short wheelbase recumbents.[1] In 2012, they helped sponsor a 4-person team for the Race Across America that completed the race in six days, 21 hours and 29 minutes.[2] In 2011 Bruce Gordon of British Columbia, Canada made a round-the-world ride in 153 days, a Guinness record. He made his trip on a Bacchetta Corsa.[3][4] Many HPRA (Human Powered Race America) Track Records have been set by Bacchetta riders on events from 200 meter sprints to 1 hour time trials.[5]

gollark: What exactly *happened*? Nobody has been very clear on this.
gollark: That also doesn't mean you should completely ban programs you don't consider a "good idea".
gollark: You know you *can* and often *should* turn off boot from disks, right?
gollark: Many, many things, but the bit they've complained about is the auto-copy-to-disks thing.
gollark: Just working on some potatOS changes, since Switchcraft's admins demand special treatment due to what seems like a really stretched interpretation of the rules.
