<p>I have a confession to make. I can’t bike. And I highly doubt that I will be able to learn how to this summer.</p>
<p>Other than not being able to drive (and the whole no-permit-on-campus detail), the only option I have left is walking, which I don’t mind normally. But given the campus size (I haven’t visited yet), do you think walking will be ok on a daily basis, or should I start sprouting wings? (ok that was lame, but I think I’m starting to get desperate XD)</p>
<p>Don’t freak out! Walking to/from class and around campus is totally fine. The bus system is pretty reliable too as far as getting around Davis. There are also longboarders, rollerbladers, unicyclists, etc. Who knows? Maybe one of your new friends will teach you how to bike :)</p>
<p>I didn’t know how to bike, either until September of last year. I was just fooling around with my little cousin’s new bike with a little help from my mom and I knew how to ride a bike in a day. I think you’ll be fine without one but don’t underestimate yourself, try it out before giving up.</p>
<p>hmm is there a reason why you’re not willing to learn how to bike? it’s never to late to start learning. really, you can learn within a week! it took me a few days to learn, but i got it! and i was a late bloomer too!</p>
<p>I don’t know how to ride a bike properly, either. I still can’t ride without training wheels, and having to rely on training wheels just looks silly at my age.</p>
<p>@anisha08 phew thanks! that made me feel better :)</p>
<p>@syltutu I tried it a couple years back, but without those training wheels… eh. I can be quite the klutz sometimes x)</p>
<p>@JelloBiafra it might have been me always on the verge of falling over. maybe. and congratulations! :)</p>
<p>@sweetlacecharm that about sums up my history with bikes XD</p>
<p>thanks, everyone! freshman -5? :D</p>
<p>I didn’t learn with training wheels (they don’t work for me like they should), the bike was just in a smaller size, which was easier for me to maneuver.</p>
<p>GUYS LEARN HOW TO RIDE A BIKE! IT’LL HELP YOU GET TO PLACES FASTER & IT’S HEALTHY! haha new summer goal fellows. Well ask people around when you go to the orientation!</p>
<p>OMG LOL I WAS WONDERING THIS EXACT SAME THING… I have NO idea how to ride a bike despite trying to learn many times.</p>
<p>Try again! It’s been years, you’d be surprised how quickly you will get it.</p>
<p>i learned how to ride a bike the spring before i went to davis. now i have a road bike and it’s more natural to me than walking. and i lost weight freshman year :)</p>
<p>@jeskuh hey, what do you know, we might end up as walking buddies! ahaha.</p>
