Bicycles

I had a bike for a while, had no room in it in the shed and now it's ruined, so I have to buy a new one.

But I like to attach a bunch of stuff to mine, mirrors, speedometers, a horn, flashlights, and a basket.
I like brown allot so I might get a brown one.

 

Yes, I have one. It's yellow and I forgot what kind of bike it is.
I have a blue one,too, but it's a women's bike, so I'd feel awkward using it.

My partner and I are cyclists about 8 months of each year. It's hilly where we are, so some areas can be quite challenging. Seven years ago, we did a (self-guided) cycling tour of Scotland...can you say "terrain" :eek: ? Would love, love, *love* to go back...would friggin' *love* to find a way to spend a year or more there (and not just because of the cycling, lol).

 

I've got a boy's blue raleigh mountain bike. Oh, it belongs to me, I didn't steal it xD Although my religious teacher once had his bicycle stolen, he knew the kid that did it, so he turned up at the kid's house and offered all the bicycle accessories as well. That boy was so ashamed he gave the bicycle back.

I use a bicycle lock to keep it safe. It is usually kept in a locked shed in my garden. Recently I've been thinking about buying a new one. When I get a new one, I probably won't personalise it either. As long as it's in top condition, that's what matters to me.

 

I own a bicycle. It's stored in our garden shed. Its back wheel is bent because of other stuff that was pressing against it, so I can't ride it. Haven't yet had time to have it fixed so until such time, it will have to stay in the garden shed...It's not personalized though. It's medium metallic pink with splashes of purple inbetween

 

Yes, but it's in such bad condition that it's horribly unpleasant to use... I got it from a dumpster, you see.

 

lol I thought about their song as well

I used to have but not anymore.
My goal is to use bicycle to go to work :icon_bigg

 

I have one, and I use it when wheather allows me to - so from May to September approximately. I dont like public transport that much, cause I hate waiting at the bus stop. So in the summer I use my bike as much as possible. Also saves a lot of money to ride it instead of buying a travel card. And always wearing a helmet

 

I got 3. One is basically rotting away. The last time I used it one of the pedals fell off so I stored it but didn't lock it. Just because I'm curious how long it'll take before it gets stolen. On a side note, I put the pedal back on but I know it'll fall off within the fist mile of using it. So that thought entertains me when picturing someone stealing it xP
The second one is a lime green one. It's old but works well and brings me from A to B.
The third one is a more 'advanced' one. It's at my parents place because it's too expensive to store at my own place (as many bicycles get stolen here). It's similar to a mountainbike but lighter and with thinner tyres. It's perfect for longer distances.

 

I'm Dutch – of course I have a bicycle :lol:

It's kind of a transporter bike I use all year round for stuff in the city. When it's smoking hot or freezing cold. In burning sun and pouring rain. Only personalisation: I added a fritz kola case I bought in Berlin.

 

I cycle to school everyday, roughly 9km per direction. Went for a cycling trip today — 32km! Toured around a pretty lake, there was a bit of sunshine, light hills, old farmhouses and fields... Headwind limited my speed a bit though.
I have this:


It's a nice bike: good brakes, good size, light and sturdy build. It's not stylish but it does what it's meant to. I wish I had more than 7 gears though. I've been asking a local sports equipment store when they'll get racks I could attach to the end of the bike, but they always reply something like "haven't arrived yet" There's a store selling bikes and related paraphernalia but I'm too embarrassed about my lack of knowledge to actually go there...


this bike has been hanging in the bike room of our basement for years. I really like the butterfly handles, and I asked my dad to find out who the owner is; he did, and if we install a seat on it I can use it! My reasons for wanting this bike are purely aesthetic, I think it's beautiful!

 

oh my yes

1 mountain bike and 1 racing bike. Admittedly I am a bit too heavy at this moment for the racing bike but when I slim down I am going to get back to it

 

I currently have a 2007 Schwinn Voyager, but I'm looking at replacing it with either a Cannondale CAADX or a Trek Crossrip.

 

I have a nice lightning blue one whoch is really good but i need to fix brakes, last time i used it i couldnt stop and i was really scared >.<

I customized it by putting a new comfy seat on which is cool pattern and it has white pedals not black ^^

 

I own a Nishiki hybride bike with seven gears which I use through the whole year, in winter with studded tyres through ice and snow. I do use a helmet all the time to protect my head.
Here in Sweden it is very common to ride your bicycle almost everywhere.

 

I should wear a helmet but I always forget ;__;

 

I've never worn a helmet on a bike :/

ALSO. an interesting, funny – and very old but need-to-share – page with photos of cycling in Amsterdam from an American point of view: Amsterdam Bicycles

 

I'm getting a new one half way through this year. My new home's only 13km away from my school, so it's easier to just ride my bike than take multiple buses and walk.

Bikes are really good; you can get places where cars and buses don't take you and it's cheap. In Canberra, the police really get you in trouble if you don't wear a helmet if they catch you, so I stay on the safe side when possible.
