Accidental Rabbit Trails: My first bad adult experience riding bikes occurred back in 1981, when my boyfriend at the time got angry with me (we were bike riding) because I got off my bike on a steep hill and walked it up the hill. I did that because he had gotten so slow in front of me that I figured he was having trouble and if he was having trouble, what luck was I going to have going up the hill? (Turned out, he had slowed down to let me catch up to him, not because of the hill.) He was really mad at me. He refused to go bike riding with me after that. More here.

Question: When did you last ride a bike? Where did you ride?
