Anyone here into recreational bicycling? If so how many miles and how often do you ride. I ride our tandem with my husband on Saturdays and try to ride my single on Sunday. Tandem we will ride 30 + miles, on my single right now only riding around 20 miles, but will get into more miles as summer progresses.:D
 
I love to ride, where do you ride on road or trails. I ride trails atleast 2 times a week for about 12 miles.
 
I ride only road, locally mainly. I have a Litespeed touring frame with mountain bike components. I could never get use to the drop handle bars so I have mountain handle bars, which makes it a lot more comfortable for me. My husband and I also have a tandem which we love to ride. On the tandem we will usually make it a 30 - 40 mile ride, stopping for lunch, which makes the long ride worth while. On my single, yesterday I did a 40 mile ride, which I haven't done in a long time. I'm an explorer and love to find out where different roads go or head out to new places. I have Candy SL mountain bike pedals, which I love. Another great form just on bikes is check it out.
 
I love biking and a friend of mine has just turned me onto a new outdoor fitness machine called Rowbike...has anyone ever heard of one of these or tried one?? If so what did you think about it??
 
Well the rowbike is something I have never seen before. It does look like a lot of work and I guess you would have to have good coordination in order to pedal and pull at the same time. On flat ground it might okay. I don't think it would work very well on hills though, you can't put the weight behind the pedals. If your friend has one, try it out before you buy. Good luck and have fun!
 
Great news! I tryed out the Rowbike this weekend and let me tell you it was an awsome experience!! It was amazing how easy it was to ride and what a workout it gave me!! I will admit it was a bit tough to go up hills in it but then again its tough on a regular or a recumbent as well. What I really liked about the machine is that it works your whole body and since your outdoors you dont get bored like you would doing this sort of workout in a gym!! Definitaley check one out if you get the chance:)...thanks for your comments...keep em coming!!
