How do use your bike.
Until 1992 I used bikes pretty much daily.
These days only ride a few times a month in the summer.
Miss day in day out biking, but a combination of work and home ties means I have no option.
How do you lot get on?

Take it easy out there
April 22, 2005 at 7:17 am #26213ScouserParticipantDitto. Only fair weather biker now. Have Toyota Camry and MR2 and Pilote R380 motorhome.
Went the Vic pub in Coalville last night. Around 400 bikes there. Strangest one, but good on him, was a 3′ midget on a specially made trike. Sound.

LOVE IS GIVING SOMEONE THE ABILITY TO DESTROY YOU, THEN TRUSTING THEM NOT TO.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, Vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming…….WOO HOO, what a ride!
April 23, 2005 at 11:26 pm #26220imperialdataKeymasterDid have Porsche, Lotus 7 rep, Cobra, V8 Rover, MX5, BMW etc but now relegated to (yawn) VW Transporter Van & Seat Alhambra people carrier! I love my kids but I was definitely on my way to owning a Ferrari before they came along! They had better look after me in my old age.
Crap parking but nice Suzuki, Kat. Is that an imported Cappuccino?
April 24, 2005 at 7:59 pm #26221RadarModeratorThe Cappuccino was an official import and has quite a cult following. Aftermarket body-kit by the look of it.
Looks fun…
