I'm writing a piece for a magazine

- Those bicycles are used in competitions, right? Besides that, do you use it in a regular way to go to work or to commute?

I'm riding an open two-wheeler, not a velomobile. I participated in a recumbent race once last year. There were some velomobiles, but most participants were racing with open two-wheelers and some with partially faired two-wheelers.

I know of one example of pure velomobile racing, but that is far away from the Netherlands. It's the HPV Super Series in Australia. The velomobiles used there are probably not suitable for the open road, and purpose built for racing on raceways.
