jemc · Post by **jemc** » 22 May 2005, 14:52

the front

shocks

steering wheel (i dunno if it's the same with bicycles

)

some dirt

max speed in flat city

my gear

boganbusman · Post by **boganbusman** » 22 May 2005, 14:58

You actually wear that stuff when you ride?

LOL

And also I hate grip-shift, and bull bars, and shocks, but that's just me.

btw it's called a handle bar, not a steering wheel

Nice bike jemc! Color isn't my type, but I can see it serves you well

jemc · Post by **jemc** » 22 May 2005, 17:09

the color was the only thing they got atm. it was either this bike that i liked from the minute i saw it or no bike.

btw, i'm probably gonna buy a new bag for my bike...but not the triangle one. i'll go with the one you put under the seat this time

Dragster · Post by **Dragster** » 22 May 2005, 17:15

I'm trying to keep my bike as light as possible, you can really feel the difference of just 1 kg, but I guess it depends on what you are using your bike for.

jemc · Post by **jemc** » 22 May 2005, 17:37

the bag isn't that heavy.

and i use my bike for cruisin' around our living area or for longer trips (10-100km)

Dragster · Post by **Dragster** » 22 May 2005, 17:41

If I'm ever going to get a bag, I would use it for tools, so then it is heavy

Errr, you are going on 100km's trip? Come to my place d00d

jemc · Post by **jemc** » 22 May 2005, 17:49

i said 10-100km not 10-300km

mohsan1988 · Post by **mohsan1988** » 22 May 2005, 19:58

lol.... I'm going to try and make a bike with a steeting wheel....

Best project to date...

Dunno how I've missed this thread before. I love cycling.

This weekends total: 35km, not that much but I was just having fun

Starting tomorrow I'll be cycling to work, it's 18km one way.

I have bike like this

vellu · Post by **vellu** » 22 May 2005, 21:14

I ride about 12 km everyday (to work and back). That makes about 60k per week, 240 per month and 2880 a year. And that's just for work...More for fun.

I'd say that's a lot

I limit my riding to only in warmweather, doesn't matter if it rains as long as it's warm. So no winters for me

Also I'm no athlete, so I'm not interested in doing over 30km on one trip, ofcourse the work and back is 36km but it's two parts.

mohsan1988 · Post by **mohsan1988** » 22 May 2005, 22:31

Nah all weather is fun....

Rain is he best cos a two wheeled vehicle is hard to maintain, easy to slide....
Only annoying things are:

1) you fall off so bad that you die

AND EVEN WORSE:

2) you have to clean the mud off your bike afterwards
