How many other bike riders around here?
    #26037543 - 06/07/19 12:31 AM (4 years, 7 months ago)

I'd like to see how many others ride bikes around here, and what type of riding? Street race on a curly bar? Bmx, freestyle bmx? Gravel, XC, enduro, trail, freeride, park and dirt jump or even trials? What style do you ride and why?

What an amazing thread!

I ride my montain bike to work every day. There is about 14 kilometers to get there and back... It is alot if you look in the long run. I love my job and I get excited every time I go to work. Bike riders are awesome and everybody loves us (except those crazy rat racers that are late to work). :smile:

I've heard about drivers in Milwaukee, I don't think I would ever go on the roads there.
  Even in the lake county I feel like I should be wearing my full face and body armor  just to ride around town. Don't know if it's because I ride a BMX and Dirt jump bikes or if the road bikers deal with the same.

Many times, in London. Well, three to be exact. Rebuilt the bike each time. I know every nut and bolt on her.

Never broke a bone though.

Yikes!

So they have helmet laws over there?

In PA we don't have to wear helmets on motorcycles, but we get tickets for not wearing our seatbelts.

I've thought about it sometimes. The main thing that keeps me from buying one is that there are too few trails and too many people. If I lived in some kind of utopian city with trees and grass instead of streets where everyone bicycles everywhere, then maybe.

I'm an avid Bike rider!  I have a Trek Mountain bike and I do mostly paved roads but I have taken it on dirt and gravel trails.  Chicago has an 18 mile long bike trail on lake Michigan which is where I usually ride.  I will also drive out the city to trails in surrounding suburbs as well.

I use to do 20 miles every night as a teen. have a trail by me that is 25 miles through wilderness and cow farms not a single turn straight line. i like to just sit back and let my mind disappear as i peddle...

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Sounds awesome. I love shredding on my bike. Im awaiting surgery on my stomach, so i cant go too hard and have kinda let my bike collect dust... but i am certainly eager to get back into it. Never did any 20 miles or anything but i loved riding 5-8 miles at night. Such a great release:heart:

I'll be honest i wasn't really pushing my self, it was only about 15-18 mph cruising. My dad would be done 30-45 mins ahead of me with a avg speed of 35mph.. i was just enjoying nature having a good time it really allowed my adhd brain to calm down. I didn't smoke back then i'd give my left nut for a nice bike and "the time" for rides, on some good dank mmmmm.

I got into triathlons a handful of years back so I had a road bike that I put many many miles on. Lots of 50+ miles rides while I was training for the Ironman. I also did a week long bike ride in Oregon called Cycle Oregon that was amazing. 60-80 each day, with rides along the coast, up 7 miles then down 8 to the Rogue River, and food/drinks at the end of each day.

I also love commuting by bike in town. And Portland, OR is perfect for cyclists and drivers are super (if not too) respectful of folks on bikes.

I bought a new Diamondback road bike a few months ago that I really like. Unfortunately, I am going to have knee surgery in a couple weeks so I won't be on that for a while. But I do hope to get back into biking since running won't be an option for a long time.

Road bike here. I used to mountain bike but stopped when I moved away from the mountains. I'm back now and should pick it back up, mtbs are so expensive these days though!

I ride a little bit, not as much as I used too, I just don't have as much free time anymore. I would ride trails or just leisure rides up in the city late late at night or early in the morning when pedestrian traffic dies down. I loved riding up to the top floor of parking ramps/garage and racing back down. Was fun to just watch over the city from the very top floor of the parking garage. Pretty stupid and dangerous, but I would get a rush racing back down the parking ramp not knowing if there was a car coming around the blind corners.

Now I golf.
