What do you do with your BMX?
#1
Good day.
I was meditating and randomly thought about guys like me (in 30s, but this is directed towards everyone) who own BMX bike(s). What do you do with it? Do you commute to work and school or just cruise around the city? Maybe some tricks in the skatepark or backyard dirt jumps?

Sometimes I go for a pleasure ride around the neighbourhood, but nothing cray cray. Should not injure myself doing those sick backflips. Might be a funny question, idk.

Used to just bike around with couple of my buddies in my early to mid 20s but without the group factor (buds moving elsewhere) the bmx fun somehow faded away :/

I mostly ride my bike to school or work. I also cruise around my neighborhood from time to time - just for fun. I don't have any tricks in my skatepark or backyard dirt jumps, though. My bike is pretty plain, and I don't have any cool gears, either.

Cruise—sprint.

One day I'd like to hop up and do a bar spin.

Hi!
I actually don't have a BMX, but I do have a bike that I use for transportation. I used to have a BMX, but then I got really into cycling and stopped using it.
I think the best thing you could do with your BMX is tricks Big GrinD
My favorite was G turn.
Ah, I feel the want to ride one now.

Sometimes I'll hit skateparks or dirt jumps. But honestly, recently I mostly just cruise around the city hitting little gaps, stair sets, maybe stopping by at a skatepark for 5-10min then keep going on to more spots and have found that pretty fun.
