My first ever bike was a Barbie bike. Tricycle. Had stupid Babie's face all over it. I hated it. It even had a Barbie horn that would say stupid Barbie phrases when you squeezed it.

First mountain bike was blue, though. My absolute favorite!

I don't ride hybrids, though. I just use a mountain bike. road bikes are nice, but I don't do tons of road biking
I have always just loved bikes. The faster they would go, the better!
We have both had many over the years, I am sure. I can barely recall my first bike, it had training wheels I had my brother remove pronto. LOL.

I'd had several as a child/teen, as I kept buying, selling, trading.

I had Schwinn's first 21 spd. I loved that and it was blue. A road bike.
I had saved from mowing lots of lawns to buy that one!

My first loves are road bikes, ready for racing, they are so f-a-s-t! I love the speed! I have had a few and only wanted more and more. It get to be like an addiction with me.

I have had two mountain bikes.
Hybrids, 3. Just because I like to buy/sell/trade.

I stopped trading/selling a while ago because I had started to customize the bikes with various components, etc. Never gonna get the money put into them back out of those!

However, I may have to sell at some point. It depends upon how much rehab I can tolerate. I cannot safely ride right now. If/when I can, I will start with a hybrid.

Thanks so much for sharing!

I hope you have a good weekend!
