Well Bernie is buying me a bike for Christmas. I haven't ridden one in years, but the kids are getting to the age it would be nice to take them places we can ride with them. Do you guys ride bikes? What kind of bike do you have?

Oh cool. I don't have a bike anymore (it's too small), but I would like one like this for cruising around.

How old are you Liz? JK. I would like a bike with a basket, a bell that rings and things to make it look good (10 points to who gets the reference ). But really, it would be extremely handy for going to work because it's close where it is only a couple minute drive, but too far to walk. It would be nice to have a bike around campus too.

I've got one here! I'd give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it I have a bike but I love driving and I'm lazy, so it goes unused

Beck, are there a lot of bike trails where you live? There are quite a few here that I walk through a lot that are really nice. Some need a permit though which I think is a bit ridiculous.

Along a lot of the roads there are either bike trails or bike lanes. Mount Stromlo has a lot of bike tracks too.

Use to have one when I was a kid but don't have one now. I would love to have a bike and ride into town/uni, etc as Palmy is so bike friendly. I had those really cool moutain bikes when I was a kid. Refused to own a ladies bike.

Aren't they cool? If I lived somewhere flatter (and had lots of money!) I would definitely buy one.

I'm not sure I'd use the word cool there Liz I still have a bicycle but I can't remember the last time it was used. A very long time ago.

I still have my bike but I haven't ridden it since high school. I went to colleges with small campuses, so the longest walk I ever had to go anywhere from my dorm was 15 minutes, so it wasn't worth bringing my bike along to school with me.
I could probably use it at least a bit now and then, but I'm convinced I've forgotten how to ride it!
What kind of modifications would Dylan's bike need? That would be really cool if the funding comes through!

It would need to be built for him. He has very tight legs so couldn't pedal easily on his own, he'd need his feet strapped to the pedals or they'd keep flying off, something to keep his legs apart.... yep lots of things.

I have a Harley Davidson bicycle. We used to bike the park trails all the time. Now we have Emily and haven't used it since!

We are getting Dylan a modified bike. Probably similar to the one he uses at school (see pic) Who knew there was such a thing as a bikeologist? Attachments:
