Beach Cruisers On Campus

Especially at the larger more rural campuses, having some sort of bike transportation was pretty imperative. Going from dorm to class to different buildings can be a taxing ordeal. This is why the beach cruiser bike has become a favorite on campus.

Its comfortable seat and upright riding position makes it easy to ride carrying a backpack. There are even the options of installing a front wicker basket, or a back book rack. Some of the bikes are beautiful and well-designed. Some of the college students have already been designing their own decorated beach cruisers and low rider bikes since Junior High School. One young guy when asked about his somewhat devilish decorated beach cruisers, with devils and demons all over the frame and fender, said it was something he had learned to design when he was in high school, in his old Chicano neighborhood, but now proudly displayed at his school in Southern California.

But the young man, called Juan had some plans for the weekend. On Saturday morning, Juan was planning to meet up with Jane, a fellow student, at her dorm early. She had packed a picnic lunch of bread and cheese, and some soft drinks, and carefully packed it and put it in her white wicker basket. Jane had seen Juans mythical steed, disguised as a low rider bicycle, and had been somewhat enchanted. When he caught her staring at the ornate creation, and asked her what her name was, she replied that her name was Jane, and that she had seen him before, although he had not previously noticed her in the huge biology lecture hall.

When Juan found out that she was doing well on her Biology exams, he immediately requested that they get together for a bike ride on Saturday, and they could take their school books and review for the next test. So you see, low rider bikes can be attractive in more ways than one.

Beach cruiser bikes are a retro phenomenon, with the revival of relaxing bikes from the 1950s, but in more cheerful and fun colors than ever before

These bikes can be single speed, or are often three-speed with an internal hub, so the rider can travel on a more varied terrain A 26-inch bike for men can be a single speed model with a classic design and a cushion seat for a comfortable ride. By having oversized tires, from 1.5 to 2 inches wide, its easier to ride on rough terrain, and get a smoother more cushioned ride everywhere. The multi geared models allow the rider to travel in more varied terrain. The type of beach cruiser that you ride is determined by what kind of area you will be riding in. If your riding area is more hilly, you may need a multi speed beach cruiser. If you will be riding your beach cruiser where rain is frequent then youd like to have a beach cruiser with fenders. They have sort of become part of the lifestyle in places where people go surfing, like Southern California. So continue the adventure with beach cruiser bikes.
