I love riding a bicycle since I was 10-11 years old. In my childhood, I had a Russian bike made for teenagers called 'Aist' (Stork), which I had for 2-3 years maybe. It was blue and could bend in halves. I rode it a lot alone and with my cousins. Unfortunately, it was stolen when one day I left it at my cousin's home, because it broke and couldn't bring it home. After that I didn't buy a new bike, even I always dreamt about it. They are pretty expensive in my country, and it isn't convenient to ride a bicycle, since we don't have bicycle paths in our cities. People who ride a bike have to ride along the street with cars, which is dangerous for a rider, or ride on the pavement, where you can bump into a child or any other person. Also, you can only ride it 4-5 months a year - in summer and 1-2 months in spring or autumn. The other thing, that amazes me, that people buy mountain bikes to ride in the city. I think it doesn't make sense, since the city terrain is mostly flat and you don't need all those extra speed levels.
