    Your poll results will be flawed as someone without a bike has voted in most of the options.
    Yeh, cos that's the reason they will be flawed

    Kinda like frostbite, but less to do with really cold and more to do with lack of blood flow.

    I stand corrected, and agree that it was flawed from the outset.

    Indeed, I couldn't fit in Mike's 'I would but a customer service rep came to my house and broke my shins'.

    or.... 'Stick to your knitting Grandma' and 'Do you charge you customers for your time on here'?

    Riding your mum counts, yes?


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    That was probably the rep from the sewing machine company.

    When I can. Weekends and lately on a time frame :-( Such is a busy life.


    Don't ride to work - just fuck me off, buy the time I was there all would be nice and warm and I'd want to continue - could become a employment issue. Late again Mr B - via Akaroa did we?

    Mind you moving house in a few weeks further afield so the commute will be a extra 10kms on top of the current run and open road so maybe appeal more. But them your bike is sitting outside work calling you like a 22 year old randy cheer leader for a ride...... more potential employment issues......

    I commute every work day (34km round trip) but seldom ride in the weekends. Hopefully that'll change next summer now that our house repairs are done.

    You should get a bike like mine then. Not so much the randy 22 y.o. cheerleader ... more like a 43 year old married tax accountant and volunteer meals-on-wheels driver.

    Hahah - good point but surely there is a risk that you just walk past it one day and keep walking to the bike shop.

    If that happens it would probably just be for a younger 'tax accountant'.
