Before i got into motorbikes (all kinds) i used to love and own a self built very expensive pushbike , i remember riding to tewksbury and back 3 times a week with friends (15 miles there 15 miles back = 30 miles) but it was stolen and so instead of replacing it i bought a moped(cost around the same price as the pushbike), only a 50cc gets around 50mph. but recently i haven't been able to afford petrol (Girlfriends/grandfathers/friends birthdays) so I've gone back to riding a pushbike. Jesus do i get tired and out of breath easily
but i want to get back into riding them good exercise and easy on the pocket Anyone else ride a pushbike? or motorbike or both?

i have a push bike, its my dads old one and the chain comes of meaning my foot slips off the pedal and i slam onto my groin on the crossbar causing me to fall onto the road and hold up traffic while i come to terms with my infertility

Lmao

does getting right up behind mopeds in my car count?

im basically on the thing

dont get me wrong i have patience for all road users, especially cyclists etc as they are at huge risks, but mopeds i cant stand, they just come across so cocky

not aimed at you of course mate, but once you get a car im sure you'll understand

but yeh to answer the question, i used to love my mountain bike, until a dog ran out in to the road and my mate ran over him, it kind of lost its sparkle for me then, mind that was about 6 years ago

Whoa poor dog, and i know what you mean about us moped users coming across cocky. And that's coming from a moped-er lol, mopeds are dangerous things but that's part of the reason why i love it

I'm heavily into mountain biking, currently owning 6 bikes.

Not into street but i do like freeride and xc'ing.

Did Lands End to John O'Groats a couple of years ago; 1050 miles by the route I took. That was an awesome couple of weeks.

1050 miles :O would love to have ridden that.

i have a bmx bike, a mountain bike and a motorbike. i love my motorbike heaps, its a Suzuki DRZ-125L that I've had since I was 10, its a bit small, but i still love it. it also has a broken clutch lever
my bmx is a yellow mongoose pro with no stickers. i found in a dumpster it had near no moving parts and a warped sprocket when i got it, but i fixed it up. the most valuable part of that bike is the maxxis hookworm tire. and my mountain bike is a giant boulder and i've had that for ages as well, its now scratched with bald tires poor bike
