 Smiley Hello.  Wonder if anyone has taken their Strida on the train or bus?  Care to share your bus or train experience.

I do it quite often.  I cycle to the train station, trolley into the station, brake my Strida and if I am lucky, I get a seat on the train, I gently hug my Strida close to me.

One tip:  find the last or first train carriage so that you will have more space.

I do it so often that the train officer in the first carriage at the end of the work day chit chats with me and remarks that the bike is unique looking.

When I am on the bus, I try to get to the end of the bus (even better if it is a double decker), where there is more room for me and me Strida.

Of course, I get asked often even on the bus "where I bought the bike?" "is it a tricycle?" "there is no chain??"  Stares aside, it is a happy bike as children and adults alike stare hard at the Strida and wonder, "Hmm, how does it work?"
