Honestly, is it just me or is cycling alone like really lame? Of course I could drag a couple of friends along but I like being able to cycle at my own pace and stop when I'm tired without anyone going "Dude seriously..?".

You should train a monkey to ride a bike with you. No joke, if you were to ride around town with a monkey by your side, you'd get a hundred times more attention than having any other "friend" of yours by your side.

I don't get it honestly sorry. You ride a bike and think you look uncool? Well I mean the cool people drive cars. In all honesty though I don't see whats uncool about someone riding a bike alone.

On the contrary, I'd just rather not look stupid. I look really stupid. Not just "not cool".

Dismiss what others think. You're riding a bike because you enjoy it. Who criticizes people for riding a bike alone? What's wrong with that? Nothing.

Know what? It doesn't matter what others think of you. If you want to go cycling alone; then go for it and don't worry about what others think of you.

There is a way, but it involves a lot of fire, medieval weapons and a bird of prey. Other than that no-one can look kewl on a bike.

I don't know about the whole cool part, but cycling alone means you can't draft behind other people so it's harder depending on how far/fast you ride.

When I see someone cycling by themself, I just assume they're exercising...unless they're going slow, in which case I assume they're trying to exercise.

I don't seem to look cool when I have sex alone. :(

WTF?........ Ya know what's even lamer? Those dudes & dudettes who pay a (insert expletive) huge load of money to sit on those cycling machines at the 24 Hour Fitness Center when they could do it for FREE! Seriously, there is nothing lame about biking out & about on your own. One member mentioned about training a monkey to join you. If not, get a dog to run next to you while biking. It's a great way to "walk" the dog while doing your own thing.

Who ever looked cool while cycling? Nobody cares, nobody important.

I did look wicked awesome biking when I was a kid. You see, I had this device attached to the right handle which sounded like a motorcycle enginge when I turned it. Everyone turned there head around to watch me, and I bet they thought "Oh dear baby Jesus, that's gotta be the coolest SOB alive".

Dude, cycling isn't free. You have to buy the bicyle. :P It is probably cheaper than a gym membership, though, in the long run.

You get a better workout cycling by yourself unless your leading because you won't be drafting.

going alone is always cool what's not cool is reflecting on how cool you are or aren't.

A lot of cool dudes compensate by riding with no hands. Also, try to look like you are bored.

you don't need to look cool, TC. You already are cool.

I hear riding bikes makes you feel less sweaty than walking.

You should train a monkey to ride a bike with you. No joke, if you were to ride around town with a monkey by your side, you'd get a hundred times more attention than having any other "friend" of yours by your side. Nerd_Man

Oh, he would get attention alright. But maybe not the attention he was hoping for...
