The Biking Family - a 21st century look

Hobbies can be great for a wide range of reasons. They can keep you entertained, teach you new skills, and enhance the bonds between the people around you. It offers the participant relief from a hectic work life, and something to plan and look forward too. If you are interested in taking up a new hobby you have a vast amount to choose from. One of the simplest hobbies available is biking. It is an activity that the whole family can enjoy together.

Whether it be cycling with your family, performing freestyle with your friends, or even cruising around the country on your chopper, biking is a fantastic way for you to spend your free time. The 21st century has played host to a surge in biking developments, with technology now boasting the emergence of a wide range of bike styles. You should see if any of the following suit your spare-time taste-buds:

Mountain Bikes: Fancy yourself as a bit of an adventurous type? Mountain Bikes are a fantastic way for you to explore your local landscape. They normally offer fantastic suspension (both front and rear ideally), a wide range of gears, and tyres that are built to last. Whether you want to spend some time with your family, or explore the world around you, mountain biking makes a perfect activity for all ages.

Road Bikes: Road Bikes are considered road-worthy. This means that you can use a road bike to travel anywhere you like - even to work. This will undoubtedly improve your fitness and can thus help to keep your heart healthy. Road biking is actually part of a major sport. If you have a competitive edge, road biking can offer you races and time trials - making it a hobby that will push you to your limits. An example of this is the Tour De France, which takes place every summer, and features some of the world's most elite cyclists

Motor Bikes: If you like to be at one with the outdoors then motor biking is for you. Motor bikes ensure high speed action that will leave you exhilarated after every ride. One fantastic way to share this experience is to ride with a group of people. This will allow you to compare bikes, experiences and ideally your personailities! Motor biking can be both socially and physically exhilarating, ensuring an improvement in social relations and an adrenaline filled lifestyle.

When looking to purchase a bike of any kind you need to seek a retailer who is trusted. In all types of biking you have to rely on the performance of your kit meaning every part should be perfectly configured.

For mountain bikes you should opt for a shop that test's their products in front of you. You need to ensure that both the suspension and brakes work as they should. These principles are the same when buying a road bike. Road biking involves you sharing your track with cars and large vehicles making it potentially hazardous. Find a company that are renowned for reliability and thorough manufacture so you can depend upon your bike on the road.

Obviously motor bikes cost a lot more than cycling bikes. When investing into a motor bike you need to be as thorough as you would be when buying a car. If it is second hand you want all the driver histories, its latest MOT, and any accidents that it may have been involved in. Some motor bikes can have extremely powerful engines - for the beginner rider it would be my advice to start with a bike that has a smaller motor. After all, you can always work your way up!
