own a bike

To have my own bike was my dream since I was 12. So now I’ll wait till I have my own place to live, or at least a place where I can place it and then collect money and buy it! Yeah! :) I dream of riding the bicicle on weekends!

I’m getting really excited. I’am 100% reliant on public transport or my partner for getting around. I live in a smallish apartment, so I need a fold away bike and have seen the coolest one from Dohan. Still thinking about wheel size but I’m getting very excited about being able to zip around town much more easier – and it’ll help me shift some pounds and get my six-pack.

To me, riding a bike is one of the most UNDERrated things. The feeling of having the wind on your face as you glide down a street or path is nothing short of exhilarating after a tall stack of papers has consumed your weekday. Highly recommended!

I had an old bike, which basically couple of weeks ago fell apart, it was going to cost a lot of money to fix and I felt depressed as I love riding my bike

I spoke to the guy at the bike shop who suggested cycle to work scheme,so checked it out www.cyclescheme.co.uk
My employer was cool about joining it and I get tax/NI breaks and save myself some cash

I couldn’t find the bike I wanted locally,found one in London at Cyclesurgery www.cyclesurgery.com they delivered it for a tenner!

I visualised myself riding it, went on websites looking at pictures and stuck up a picture on my fridge, so I would see every morning, kept affirming that this bike was mine

I had it a week now and it’s fabulous, it’s also helping me get fit
I’ve been out cycling with my son along the cycle and canal paths

The bike is a Marin Point Reyes

I ride a bike to my university almost every time :)

to mark this as ‘done!’ I got my bike last week and it’s soooooo nice! It’s light blue and white, and is a GT Avalanche. Now I just need some spare time to go riding! :)

Well I’ve had a look at a few different bikes that I’m interested in. I just sent my Aunty and Uncle (who are crazy into mountain and roadbiking) an email asking which ones they’d suggest. Now I just have to make my decision and go get it! Hooray for progress!

This was originally “go bike riding”.......but as part of restructuring my goals I thought that focusing on actually getting a bike might be the logical first step ;)

of choosing a bike at the moment. It’s going to be a birthday present I think :) Really looking forward to this. There’s some great places to go around here, and also some great clubs to get involved in too.
