2sixstreet Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Just wondering how far you guys travel to get to a ride location and if you ride/walk/drive/train/other or a combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Clean Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'll bike about 2 miles to get to the spot and then walk if it is any longer or get a lift of ma mum or dad. If it's far away from where i live like 1 or more hours i will get the trian.Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flipkickbs Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Before i started driving i frequently rode about 6 and a half miles between Droitwich and Bromsgrove to ride. Its not that bad once you get going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerboysam1 Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I usually get the train into town, or sometimes I just ride up the road a bit or just go in my garden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I ride about 10 mins into town and spend most of the time riding this.This is about a quarter of the rocks .P.S sorry for the shocking picture quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I mostly ride about 2 and a half miles into the town near me, or if i'm going to another town or city i'll ride about 3 miles to my trainstation, and then get the train. and if my mum is feeling generous as she owns a Van she will occasionally take me and my mates where we want. it's kinda handy. cool topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan0591 Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I either ride about ten mins to get to a good place near me, walls ect, or ride ten mins and get the ferry over to southamton to ride there for the day.Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeZee Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I just pop my bike into my car and drive to wherever I'm riding. Normally its about 5-7 miles away from where I live, sometime more, sometimes less. Although its a proper pain folding down the seats in my celica and fitting mine, and my friends bikes into the car. Have to take off the front wheels (front wheels off the bikes... not the car )Could do with something bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve sturt Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I used to ride about 7 miles from Bridgend train Station to POrth Cawl or Southerndown about twice a week for about a year. Then moved back to surrey and became lazy doing street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I don't live too far away from a train station, so I'll usually ride down, but i also live in a town, with a bit of street riding, which is only about 2-3 miles away...jOefish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
