Anyone out there ride? What do you ride? When? How often?

skysidhe · 03-25-2007, 08:50 PM

I used to! It was a little on/off road dirt bike. Sorry that's all I got.

Ibby · 03-25-2007, 09:12 PM

My dream bike?

TheMercenary · 03-25-2007, 09:13 PM

Very cool guys. I just got back into it after no riding for 20 years or so. It is great fun. I was just wondering if anyone else was riding.

xoxoxoBruce · 03-25-2007, 09:28 PM

Nope, not going back to it.....too damn dangerous these days, between piss poor roads and inattentive drivers.

I want a bike so bad - I rode in High School - but they are suicide. I hear so many stories. Just one thing I have to learn to do without.

After I finish my bike ride, buying and learning to ride a motorcycle is next on my agenda. I'm thinking something big and loud with an upright riding position would be appropriate.

I ride as well. I am between bikes at the moment but I plan on buying another bike, probably a Shadow or something like that. I'm a metric cruiser man, although I would not turn up my nose at a Harley if I were to win one in a contest. I cannot afford to buy one just yet.

English, western, or side-saddle?

My dad rode in high school and college, then one day completely by coincidence he was on campus and witnessed an accident between a car and another motorcycle rider. He watched the guy's legs get cut off, right there in front of him. Sold his bike that day and hasn't ridden one since.

Of course it's possible this story was embellished to encourage his children never to ride a motorcycle.

Very nice.

I'm toying with the idea of getting a bike this summer, suggestions for a solid learner that won't puss out on me?
I want something with steel, not those ugly street bikes that look like wasps from the front.
