Many people get reminded of the days when they were younger and riding a bike which I suppose is where they get the idea that bikes are for kids. Is all of this actually true or are there just people out there that like to cause a bit of an argument?

I can see their point in certain ways, some of the cycling clothing does look a bit out there and those cycling shoes look simply ridiculous on some of the people that wear them.

However on the whole I think they are very wrong indeed. Why is someone riding to work, getting exercise and enjoying the morning air acting like they are still a small child? I think that it is safe to say that the people that think like this are either overweight, unable to ride a bike or just plain arrogant. They are the people that tend to drive to work in the morning whilst having a nice puff on a cigarette and tucking into a nice fast food morning meal. How nice does that sound!

Other Reasons People Associate Bikes With Children

One of the other reasons this argument comes up is because many people have not been on a bike since they were in their younger years. Of course learning how to ride a bike is one of the first things parents will teach their children other than the obvious walking and talking. Most adults do not remember the times in the nappies and one of the first memories to pop into the mind is those training wills.

Perhaps you had a fall when you were younger and have never had the guts to get on a bike again so automatically hate them, hey it happens.

The truth is that bikes are not for kids at all and they help the environment and you will start to see a lot more people on them as they are working towards saving the earth.

Get on those racing bikes and get riding!
