LEGO Bicycle Recumbent 
When I was 10 years old I got the most amazing and educational toy, a Technical LEGO Set #8860. During December 2002 I stumbled upon my original LEGOs and found I had made a LEGO Bicycle Recumbent that was still intact. I'm guessing I made this in the late eighties as a fun model of a recumbent I had been planning on building. One of the key design features was incorporating a RADD MC^2 front wheel suspension system. RADD stands for James Parker's Rationally Advanced Design Development company. In 1987 he debuted the amazing RADD MC^2 Yamaha FZ75 powered protoype motorcycle. I just did a google search and found that LEGO stands for: LES GODT is Danish for "play well." Look at the first 2 letters of each word.
