Foo - Fooster bike types

A question for the fooster bike riders.....what type of bike do you (mainly) ride?

Hybrid, but my next bike will be a touring road bike.

You forgot unicycle. I know it is covered by "other", but this is Foo after all.

Mine is a roadie w/ North Road style bars.

Mtb

I had to sadly vote "road". I prefer riding my MTB, but with the closest trails 35-45 mins away, I find myself on the road a lot more than the mtb these days. Of course, the good part is the fitness I'm getting and when I did get out with the Thursday night group MTB ride, I wasn't tail end charlie any more.

You're wimping out on me here, Navy Boy.

With great shame and embarassment I must admit to having been doing almost solely road riding lately.

Acckkk!! What is wrong with you people???!?

Mtb
Cool me too:)

i ride equally my mtb and road, but i've been riding road for the longest.

The real question is what is wrong with my giant. I'd ride it, but until I make a new set of bushings, I'm grinding metal every time I ride it.

Roadies Rule on the road and in Foo.

Cool me too:)


Thank you, EJ!!! (whew!)

MTB mainly.

Im a proud roadie, I even shave my legs!:p
I have a triathlon style road bike.
Ive tried MtB and flew over my handle bars and never went back! I get injured enough as it is on my road bike:p

Did you get a stick in the spokes or something?

Road both commuting and training.

Single speed roadie, But I am "fixin her up" next weekend.

Take it easy on the front brakes:eek:

I have 2 BMX bikes. My main one is built piece by piece and cost over $1600! It's an oddball though...It has MTB lock-on grips, a Cruiser type seat, and a Cane Creek Thudbuster seatpost.

I ride a road bike, but, seeing as about 90% of 'Mountain Bikes' never really see any trails, I go places on it that most mountain bikes would never see.

Like up a STEEP single track path yesterday... loose dirt, every pedal stroke caused the back wheel to slip... but I powered up it while someone else - on a mountain bike - watched from the bottom in disbelief. Never did get him to try it... he rode a mile out of his way to go around. :p

I even shave my legs!:p

Not being a fan of the Euro look, that's a very good thing in my book! :roflmao:

Is it still a road bike if it has fenders, lights, rack, and non-drop handle bars?
If not then I ride a commuter.

Mountain bike of course

Yesssssssss!

My previous was a comfort (almost same as a hybrid), and now do ride a touring road bike. :)

Well, Blondie...we have 2 things in common then.

I'm a proud roadie and I'd shave your legs too. ;) :p :lol:

Ummmm....You still have it right? I still have mine. :) Those were the bikes that started it all, huh big bro?

Sure thing sis...that's what started it all. :)

Yep...I still have my "John Deere". :)

I ride a road bike (2004 Bianchi Vigorelli). It's light and fast. Most of the roadies give me a double take because I wear more or less mtb clothing. Even my pedals are mtb with mtb shoes. This bike suits me because the path I take is not my fault, not your fault, but asphalt. :D

Roadie, but I also hit the trails from time to time.

other. cyclocross. it's tougher than my road bike, lighter and quicker than my mountain bike. i ride it around town and on trail rides. i really only ride the road bike on group rides, and i can't remember the last time i rode my mountain bike. just don't need anything that beefy around here.

Finally, a shaving expert! :p

Road bike...but I have to say it's mostly because I'm chicken. We've got great MTB trails here in Austin, but some of them are pretty hairy, and I haven't gotten around to developing any offroad abilities.

Fixie although the frame is a cyclocross frame with track ends making it suitable for either fixed wheel or single speed freewheel. Whatever bike time remaining gets split between the mtb and roadie. Fixie's too much fun for me not to ride it. :)

I have a Cruiser & a Schwinn Pea Picker
I had to sell the Allez Vita last summer.:(
I sold the Mtn Bike it was too big for me.

Take it easy on the front brakes:eek:
Try take it easy on the front brake WHILE going down over a tree stump! ( and the bike has front suspension) yeah... mtb is not for me:D

I have to do yours first! it's only fair! now.... where did I put my weed wacker

Road and mountain. Good places to ride both around here, but the road bike is a faster commuter.

Roadie and MTB, prefer roadie though!http://www.mundogasol.com/foro/84.gif

I have to do yours first! it's only fair! now.... where did I put my weed wacker
Don't quit after one fall:(

I have to do yours first! it's only fair! now.... where did I put my weed wacker
At least you didn't say, "where's my Epilady?". :eek:

Mtb, and I'm building another.

mtb the longest, but now it's 50/50 between that and road

mtb all the way

Hybrid...I got talked into it in the store...I kinda wish I had a straight-up road bike...
