I have a Giant XTC mountain bike which has been used for both work and pleasure. I rode to work when living in Berkshire which was virtually all along a canal. I used to get out every weekend morning too to a ride around town but not done much since moving to Kent.

I ride a Charge Duster. I've been a bit busy this year, hardly been out at all this year. i think next week I'll risk life and limb on the roads and cycle to work.

Kol, depending where in kent you are, there are nice rides around. even if you have to hop over to Surrey.

I do. Trek Soho Urban 3. Love it, when it's not being stolen (or run over with me on it.) mostly around Venice / Santa Monica / Marina Del Rey area...

I have a red bike that's a hand me down from my mom. :) I'm not a bike fanatic, obviously, but I like to commute when it's not raining, run errands, and ride for fun.

I have a Rodriguez U2 (see http://www.rodcycle.com/) that I ride to work every day, all year round, and on errands, and for some recreational rides as well. With Schwalbe Marathon Supremes, I can handle the road, gravel trails, and even hard-packed dirt trails.

Ho, more details please? :-) I'm on the Kent/Surrey border.

I have a Giant Defy road bike. I use it for pleasure. I am actually doing a ride this Sunday, and then a century ride on June 14th. My favorite place is this trail around here that is called the WO&D trail. It use to be train tracks that they turned into a trail.

I ride to school and back every day. It's about a four minute trek. The route is rather idyllic: nice houses, cool breeze, and plenty of shade from trees.

My wife and I have these (http://radio.weblogs.com/0127028...) -- so called "comfort bikes" - we regularly do 60km per week during the summer on urban (Toronto) bike trails and rail trails. Last year we also biked the Niagara Circle (~150km) and this year will do the "P'tit Train du Nord" trail in Quebec.

My wife and I have Specialized comfort bikes. Just take it around our neighborhood and park trails every now and again.

I just replaced my 20 yr old mongoose with a Trek 3900.... I love it. I live biking distance from Devil's Gulch and other sweet trails, even a nice paved 11 mile loop trail along the Columbia River. My town loves bikers.

I have a Fuji Nevada 3.5... which is really just the Fuji Police bike with the "POLICE" lettering covered up with a sticker. I bike to work and ride all over the silicon valley area for fun, starting to average over 100 miles per week.

Dahon Speed D7 folding bike. I ride it to work. about 3 miles each way.
- John Wang
Do any of you take part in any events or tournaments?
- Kol Tregaskes
Not me -- I am generally anti-social (at least when it comes to lots of people).

It's a skateboard all the way for me - 2 wheels bad, 4 (urethane) wheels good.

I have a Raleigh road bike that I use for running errands around the neighborhood.

2 years ago, I did 50 mile Tour de Tendring, in preparation for a charity bike ride from Colchester to Aylesbury (100 miles). I would like to do a 12 or 24 hour endurance mtb ride one day, but getting a group together is a bit tough.
