Let's Ride! - Aloha Friday

9:33 PM   ,   38 comments



My Question:
Can you ride a bicycle?
*******
I can't yet ride but I can get on a bike and not fall off for 60 seconds while riding. I would love to learn, I just have to get me a bike which means I'll have to save up for it. I can't wait to get one.

    Yes, but not for long without getting a really sore rear-end . . . but you didn't need to know that.

    I have not been on a bike in at least 15 years now. TechyDad and I are thinking about getting some to ride with our kids. We tried some the other day and both realized that it had been so long it was not second nature to us.

    I can ride a bike and would love a new one. We live in a great neighborhood for riding, but our adult sized bikes are currently broken.

    I actually can't. It's not a skill I ever learned - my husband thinks that's crazy! Maybe I should learn with my child when he learns:)

    I rode a bike all the time as a child, then when i started cycling to work about 5 years ago, I was amazed at how difficult I fouind it. I've nw changed jobs so don't cycle any more, but should really think about starting again!

    You bet I can. In fact, we just got new bikes because our others were all rusted and in really bad shape. My only problem is that I have to regain my stamina.

    Hey Colette,, Im like you I can't ride a bike, I fell when I was learning as a little girl and hurt myself very bad (required hospitalization) I never "got back on." I would love to learn how to ride so I could go out with my daughter and husband when they go riding on the trails.

    I can ride a bike. Haven't ridden in a while though but isn't it one of things that you don't forget once you learn.
    Boy o boy, I can use an Aloha Friday in my life!
    Interesting fact, thanks for sharing:)

    I can ride a bike, but I am not very good at it. When I was a kid I used to wipe out on my bike all the time. I guess that has created a fear of getting back on one again in me.

    Thanks for stopping by the Healthy Moms!

    I could never ride without my hand, ever.

    I live right by Fox River just a few short blocks away & people come from all over to ride on our bike trail next to the river. My husband & I use to go all the time, but ever since my back surgery I'm a bit afraid to ride. Afraid of falling off I guess. We have a lot of hills around here too & bridges across the river. I suppose some day I'll get back on, but I don't see it coming too soon.
