Bikers Thread

 Hello! It's a beautiful day out here, anyone going for a ride, been for a ride lately, or got a bike at all?

[tw.au24]

Are you talking bicycle, or motorcycle? I have a bicycle, my dad has a motorcycle, I ride them both from time to time. I haven't lately, trying to stay out of the sun, it's brutal.

I think it's a nice day to stay in, out of the sun, and comfortable in air condisioning. I'm getting to be spoiled that way in my old age. I'm like "go out?, what for?" Unless I have grocery shopping or laundry to do. That's the only thing that is gonna get me out and I'm considering doing that at night.

Try a mobility aid thread

Walkers gophers and walking sticks lol

Yeah that's another reason not to go out, someone stole my cane (walking stick) Can't turn my attention away from it for a second. If you see anyone walking around with an adjustable cane with blue floral print, let me know.

 I meant motorcycle. I wasn't very clear on that, sorry.

 Gosh, I haven't been on my push bike in ages! The handlebars always seem too low, so I look like an old woman bent over...

Gravel rash from a pushbike is bad enough, and a wallaby darting out in front of a motorbike might end in more than gravel rash, too.

Other than that, enjoy the breeze through the hair- oooops, forgot about the heavy helmet that is supposed to protect from serious injury.  Doesn't always totally protect, by the way.

Spoiler

 One of those flip the coin decisions, Jess.

try riding one that fits you, not hop on ol' thing. 

hybrids are ok & size matters, also stem heights and handlebar styles
