Post by: gawoody83 on November 14, 2013, 03:23:15 AM
Has anyone fitted a bicycle holder on their Girly or others? Any photos would help and be appreciated!

There is a bloke who rides around here with a double bike mount on his sidecar. I have seen it travelling on the A1 at a good speed.

So far rode it home from work, speed bumps, 70 mph and stop and go for 35 miles and no problems besides all the weird looks at traffic lights.

Why? I work near a state park and I enjoy riding my mtn bike there on my lunch breaks and after work. However I do not want to have to drive my car just to get my bike there when I ride almost every day I can.

State park 4 miles from work, plentiful parking and fantastic bike trails. But to each their own I suppose.

I can't ride my motorcycle in the winter but am prepared to ride my bicycle. Not quite sure what point I am trying to make, but the bottom line is if you need to move your exercise choice du jour to a place where you want to use it does it matter how you choose to do it?

Yup. On the odd occasion when I would drop my wife at the "Health Club", there would be jokers parked in disabled bays, on the pavements etc. just to get as close to the door as they could. For the sake of walking no more than 10 metres to plentiful parking spaces well covered by security cameras and lighting  :nono
