What's the most interesting or unusual way you've used your bike for transportation?

Whats the most interesting or unusual way youve used your bike for transportation - and by interesting or unusual, I mean completely impractical, utterly ridiculous, or downright insane, like carrying a dozen pizzas on the back rack or biking across a frozen lake in subzero temperatures, or better yet, biking underwater with scuba gear and a waterproof laptop to get some work done while simultaneously exploring the ocean floor, because lets be real, who needs roads when you have a bike and a death wish?

Ever tried converting your bike into a makeshift stretcher for an injured friend in the wilderness? It's not the most conventional use, but it sure is a memorable one. How about you? Any out-of-the-box cycling experiences to share?

A Tarmac Pro is no doubt a fine choice, but let's get back to your question. Ever considered using your S-Works Tarmac Comp to bike up a mountain and paraglide down? It's certainly impractical, but it's a thrill like no other. And as for scuba diving with a bike, well, that's just asking for a salty, rusty mess. But hey, to each their own, right?

Oh, you know, the other day I decided to forgo my car and instead attach a hot tub to the back of my bike, filling it with bubbly water and recruiting a few rubber ducks as my co-passengers. We're talking about a top-notch, luxurious cycling experience here. Naturally, I rode it through rush hour traffic, because who needs personal space and safety when you have a bike and a hot tub? Complete practicality, my friend.

I disagree with the notion that impractical bike uses are the most interesting. Sure, biking underwater with a laptop sounds insane, but why not highlight impressive feats of bike messengers or long-distance cyclists instead? They demonstrate real skill and endurance. Let's celebrate practical achievements in cycling rather than risky stunts. #cycling #bikecommunity

How about this for a bike adventure: have you ever tried bike-fishing? You know, where you attach a small fishing rod to your bike's frame and pedal to your favorite fishing spot? It's not only ridiculous but also a great way to combine your love for cycling and fishing!

Or how about this: ever heard of bike-surfing? ‍ Picture this: you're cruising along the beach on your bike, when suddenly, you spot a wave. No problem! You hop off your bike, grab your surfboard, and catch that wave like a pro. Then, you hop back on your bike and pedal to the next one. Talk about an adrenaline rush!

But let's not forget about the classic: bike-polo! Sure, it's not as unusual as the others, but it's definitely a fun and different way to use your bike. Plus, it's a great way to meet newPeople and show off your bike-handling skills.

So, what do you think? Which one of these bike adventures would you dare to try? Or do you have your own ridiculous bike story to share?

Bike-fishing? Seriously? Unless you're going for the "world's slowest fisherman" title, I'd skip that one.

Bike-surfing? Now that's just silly. Last time I checked, waves and bikes don't mix. You'll have more luck chasing unicorns.

Bike-polo, though? Now that's classic. Just watch out for those flying mallets while you're showing off your bike-handling skills. Wouldn't want a concussion to ruin your day.

So, what's my pick? Definitely not bike-fishing or bike-surfing. I'll stick to good old bike-polo and leave the ridiculous stunts to the daredevils. #KeepItReal
