I'm a biker but I'd love to ride a segway once 😀
None of the above. I prefer to use the subway (known as the underground in the UK).
my golf gti 😀
Favorite mode of transportation? I'd love to have a car and be able to have the independence of going wherever I wanted whenever I wanted without being worried about waiting in the cold for a bus or about safety or something, but I doubt I would be able to afford the car payments and insurance and gas right now.
Imo the only advantage a car has over a bike is that you can take more stuff with you 😛
and you get to stay dry, dont have to put on special protective clothes or a helmet, get to take people with you, less chance of an accident etc,
Of course there are perks such as the almost unbelievible acceleration, being able to sneak around the traffic and they use less petrol.
I definatly prefere cars tho 🙂
Well, you sure look badass in a leather suit 😛
And yeah, you get wet, but only pussies whine about that 😛
You can usually take 1 person with you which is good enough for me, and accidents happen mostly to insensible idiots (doing wheelies at 100 mph etcetera)
You just can't beat the feeling of riding a bike, especially during the summer (England's A and B roads are alot of fun I noticed)
Get a motorbike, as long as there's no snow or ice on the roads it's alot cheaper than a car and you don't have traffic jams or anything.
Motorcycles have to follow the same rules as cars, I'm pretty sure and here in Chicago, there's snow and ice for 6 months. Kinda rules out a motorcycle. Although if I had an extra 5 grand, I'd get a moped in a second for the warmer months.
favored mode of personal transportation? View attachment 148473 That's mine.
I've had to go with car as I love the independence of just getting in and whizzing about and not having to wait at bus stops or any other public transport queue.
I also like motorbikes but haven't got a bikes licence and I also used to cycle a lot too.
I do a bit of walking.
Those Segway's look like a blast, Rammstein used one on stage back in 2005, such a giggle![]()
Get a license, from what an American friend of mine told me it seems to be really easy in the US. (unlike here, where a license costs you about $2500 🙁)
