Bicycle Riders?

Man I love to ride. I lost my license for a while and I had to ride for a while. I always liked riding for recreation but wasn't in to riding all the time for necessity. But I got a bike after I was tired of walking and I loved it. After a while I found out that I could go practically anywhere in town in a short amount of time. I may not have been as fast as a car but sometimes I was! It became like a sport to me. And the more I rode the more I got into shape. I am in the best shape of my life now. I ride bikes but I do light work outs too. I guess they are light most the time but I do heavy lifting sometimes and I always make sure I do push-ups and sit-up every other day. Riding a bike got me to feeling better and brought me into a better lifestyle. I have always taken good care of my body besides the fact that I smoke Camels but I never worked out much. Bu tman I can get on that bike and no one believes how fast I can get from one place to another and most people think I am crazy for riding such long distances. It has brought up my confidence and I believe it has helped my mind too. I can go on and on about the joys of biking but I got to go for now.

An aspiring rider here! I used to be a recreational and commuting rider but it has been a while. Now I'm looking forward to getting into that old habit. I converted my old Kona mtb into a single-speed bike but I guess  being a ten-year old aluminium bike it's better suited on-road. So I'm thinking of buying a new steel frame, maybe a 29er for single-track.

I like road and mountain biking.  I just don't get much time to do it right now.  I wish I could ride to work, but I commute 40 miles on the interstate each way.

Good that you posted this Clunke.  I am getting a Schwinn for Christmas and I am very excited to be riding again. It's been a while but I used to have a Raleigh mtn. bike and I really enjoyed it.
I was able to get myself back into decent shape years ago, and found it's a great way to get cardio and enjoy being outdoors too.

basik, any tips on riding gear?, shorts, etc?, great pics by the way, looks like you rip!

Great sport, the best one after football (soccer) actually...

I'm thinking of buying this one.
