If you're not using or somewhat into bicycles, why do you think that is?
If you're not using or somewhat into bicycles, why do you think that is?
I'm curious. I know where my life diverged and where I would've been a car guy otherwise, would be interested to see what the dealio with other people is or whether they even ever thought about it

This might sound silly but I tried it as a little kid and it was sooooo hard to push the pedals for whatever reason that it completely turned me off from the whole idea. And I was also only allowed to basically ride around in tiny circles in our driveway because all we have in our area is narrow roads with no sidewalks where people drive their dodge rams at 50mph around corners. And it's still like that where I live now so yeah.
yeah honestly there's a lot that can go wrong and give a person a bad experience biking. unmaintained shitty old bike? probably is a harder to pedal and horrible rolling resistance. Bad gearing? either super slow or super hard to pedal. frame too big or small, or seat not properly adjusted? that's gonna suck
So if you never get into it as a kid, and can't really do it even just for fun, its kinda no surprise.
