[QUOTE]Originally posted by Nim Pim: [QB] Notes about bicycles: Great idea, I love bicycling around here in Stockholm, it is a bike-friendly town, and you'll notice you can get pretty far pretty fast, and faster when you learn all the trails and shortcuts. But for god's sake be careful about choosing the saddle. Regardless of what type of saddle you have, your lower pelvic bone, or what they call the bone parts involved in sitting, WILL get a bit sore the first couple of days or the first week of bicycling, if one hasn't done it in a long time. This has deterred many potential bicyclers because they don't realize it will go away amazingly fast as the skin and bones adapts. Kind of like that nice Bene Gesserit mini-microwave oven, for cooking extremities into TV-snacks. Mind �ber matter. I was sore for about three days, then the soreness only was present for the first three minutes of a ride, then disappeared completely. So, patience, coupled with a nice and wide saddle [i](instead of the standard razorblade-saddles nowadays integrated into sports-bikes)[/i] will get you where you want to go. I also suggest a citybike or regular bike, mountain bikes may have a shitload of gears, and they look cool, but the wide and heavily studded tires (for offroad use) will substantially lower the speed on regular asphalt. Wait a minute, that may not be that bad of a choice after all, becasue that would mean you get a better workout... :) [/QB][/QUOTE]
