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]
