Who else besides me carries a bike with them on the road?

Do you have a mountain bike? Road bike? Hybrid bike?

Where are some of your favorite places to ride?

I dont have a bike -- but im thinking of getting a road bike on the back of my truck after sitting at the International dealership for 2-1/2 days with no repairs being done to my truck because JB wanted to go thru "Warrenty Dept" and I was only 100 miles from home but all they would do is put me in a motel for the week it was going to take to fix my truck.

Ok rant done-- but yeah Im thinking of strapping one on to it :D

I have an 18 speed mountain bike sitting in the shed that used to go with me all the time. Had a bad day down in Arizona with it once, 4 flat tires within a 2 mile radius bike trip, dang thorns.

Really need to get it back out tho and start using it again, this time with puncture resistant tires. With the Laptop and assorted other things in the truck now I hate to advertise it's vacant leaving the parking lot on a bike. Too many undesireables out there now, at the very least chance losing a good chunk of diesel.

That's very true. With that in mind I choose to not park in or near a major city, especially when I'm in the mood to go for a ride. Seems to be a different (better) element of people that stop at those out-of-the-way places.

I plan on taking my bike on the road with me. I also have a longboard (I'm a little rusty on it though :D!)
