my goodness! When did hiring a bicycle become so damn expensive?... does it come with a driver & packed lunch? for that price you can rent a self-drive car here in Jordan!

Hello guys, good to see the interest.
Typically i am a lazy bone pushing myself or rather trying to push myself for starting cycling. Are we on this weekend?
I live beside westgate...so as mentioned by nim0, reaching riverside won't be a prob.

let me know if we are on coming weekend.
And i am still a novice...so hope ppl are not too fit to match )).

Hi people,

I don't know how to ride a bike and would like to learn. Does any of you know where I can get adult classes?

Hi Kabie.

I can connect you with a guy who taught me. He is usually in Karura Forest. He taught me how to ride about three weeks ago and now I'm really good at it. It will take about an hour for you to learn then after that you can practice on your own.

I have a group of friends that I go cycling with in Karura every Saturday. You are welcome to join and I will introduce you to the guy.

Could someone recommend a good route between Karen and Kilimani? I'm a very experienced urban cyclist (Chicago) riding a bike that can handle pavement as well as off-road. If someone thinks Ngong Rd during construction is fine, I've love to follow you on a ride. From my window, it seems pretty dicey.

Thanks!
