A lot of us are into hiphop. We hang out, work on our bikes and cruise through town. Since 2009 we do bike cruises. This was the 3rd cruise of the Keytown 071 cruises. (18 Okt. 2009) Because of the bad weather we were with a small group (11 persons) and we cut the cruise shorter than planned. We cycled from Leiden Central through Leiderdorp, Zoeterwoude-Rijndijk, Zoeterwoude-Dorp and back to Leiden. The music in the video is “Tuff Crew – My part of town”. From the album “Danger Zone” (1988). Warlock Records. De Keytown Cruisers 071 (KTC) is een groep vrienden uit Leiden en omgeving. 071 is ons kerngetal.

Picking out bikes for sale can be an extremely hard decision. In many ways, it is more difficult than picking out an automobile. After all, most cars are made for the same purposes.
Unless you are an off-roader, or someone who hauls around a lot of gear, you can probably buy a sedan and be happy with it. It is just a matter of picking out a car with enough cargo space and cabin space for your needs.
When you are picking out a bike for sale, however, you are dealing with a much more specialized market. You can find bicycles for sale for almost any need. Some of them are dedicated mountain bikes, most at home on steep, unpaved paths.
Other ones are dedicated street racers, thin and sleek, perfect for high speeds on smooth roads. A lot of them fit somewhere in the middle. Some of them are even more specialized, only suitable for oval tracks or dirt-bike courses. Other bikes are set up to do tricks. The possibilities are endless.
If you are looking for bikes for sale just to get around the neighborhood, my advice would be to buy something cheap and practical. You can usually bikes for sale in the 200-dollar range. If you are willing to really look around at some garage sales, you can find one for either less.
A hybrid bicycle is the best kind of bike for a beginner because they likely to be very cheap and they are very easy to ride as well. They are basically a cross between a mountain bike and a road bike. It’s absolutely good to take them on some terrains like mild off-road, on unpaved back roads, and on the streets.
Unlike mountain bikes for sale, they are not heavy and hard to drive on the long haul. Unlike road bikes, they are able to go on streets that aren’t paved. They are also a bit more durable than a road bike so, if you jump a curb, you probably won’t damage your frame, tire, or wheel.
Of course, a lot of people buy their bikes for sale based on their commute. If you take the same path to work every day, and all of it is on paved roads and in bike lanes, you might want to consider getting a dedicated road bike. They are easier to ride, faster, and lighter weight than hybrid bicycles. Riding to work is becoming a very popular option, so you should consider what you need to get there.
