How the fuck do you ride a bike?

[Walter]

Seriously? O_O

I thought everyone knew how to ride a bike. D: Im not sure how to explain it to be honest... You just sit on it, keeping your feet on the ground at first... then put one foot on the pedal... push down, thus moving you forward... then you lift your other foot up and pedal with the other leg... and you just keep pedaling. Dont lean side to side, just stay in your center of gravity. After you get the hang of that, learn to turn.

[Gotcha]

um you just get on it and peddle

Pedal fast so the momentum keeps you balanced

Riding a bike is all about trust, thats all it is.

Oh so that's why I suck at it

Nyerp, since I know how it feels to suck at something(pulling out) I've uploaded this video for you to properly learn how to ride away into the sunset on your bike.

im fat and i can ride a bike! ya me!

ummm, make sure that you have the seat low to the ground because if it's too high up it makes you feel weird, make it low enough so that you can sit on it and your feet can fully touch the ground (not just your tippy toes). start by doing a waddle type thing where you like walk/waddle with your bike and eventually start by pushing with your feet on the ground and then leave  your feet in the air (while sitting on the seat of course). even if you start to lean or fall over, your feet will catch you =]eventually you can start to use the pedals (if its a 7 speed bike put it around like 3 or 4 because one is too light and 7 is too much so you'd fall anyways). you'll get it eventually, and if you're really desperate ask someone to help or spot you.


BUT NEVER EVER EVER shake your head and close your eyes while riding your bike BAD THINGS HAPPEN!

[Nyerp]

yeah jtljjltl, my dad's told me to do the waddle/no pedals stuff

i still can't seem to get my balance

maybe i need to practice more

[laskfn]

im thinking so

like try making it so that the bike doesnt lean too far to one side, not everyone can just sit on a bike and balance, thats why you have to move while you're on the bike to keep from falling over. maybe put yourself on a SMALL incline like your driveway or something and gently let yourself roll down it while using your feet for balance.

Did you ever learn to ride a bike,fatfuck?

You need to shut the fuck up.

um ya so i see somewhat of a discussion about bikes and fat people

There is a correlation. When you're fat, most saddles will hurt like a bitch. I speak from experience.

Come to think of it, I haven't tried riding a bike since those days.

only my tippy toes touch the ground 

you're supposed to set it at where the top of your hip is, so your knees don't hurt like fuck when you pedal
