I choose that one after test riding some others, way back in 1994 (M5, Challenge Wing) I found this one was the most comfortable. It is not easy to ride at first, but after getting used to it, it is great. For one, you can easily ride it hands-off, something not possible on most recumbents.
In case you are wondering how this bike works, here is a link to a picture that is a scan from their brochure. It explains in simple graphics what the steering mechanism is about.
And now, after having ridden the Trike for 2 years, I moved to a two-wheeler, the Flevo Bike. This is what it looks like:
You can get more info from the International Human Powered Vehicle Association IHPVA, and browse their website for pictures.
