We've all been there, @Glitter. Scraped knees are always a part of learning how to ride a flying bike!

Just remember it's not the bike that does it--it's your mind set. I started out on my little brother's tricycle with my hands on the handlebars and pushing it around the cul-de-sac with one foot. After about 50 times around I forgot I was stuck on the ground and lifted off! It was an amazing feeling Till I hit a streetlight and fell and broke my ulna.

So it's best to start off with some beater bike till you get the hang of it. Then you can start to trick it out with wings and tassels and stuff.

How should I start building my flying bike? My last one got trashed.

I showed up at the last meeting. Even if you can't ride, it's fun to watch! A great way to pass the time before the ethereal beings come and drag me back to my dorm.

Hey Selena! I found your backpack! Can you swing by my door so I can give it to you? Also, every night I had it was really weird.

Yeah I found my flying bike. It was in Woodhull field, not far away from the front of the dorm where it got snatched. Obviously the thieves didn't know how to fly it, which is great because I was getting kind of depressed thinking it was a fellow flying bicyclist. There's totally a commraderie between flying bike pilots and to think any would sink so low as to steal another's flying bike was sad to contemplate.

But no! It was just some low-life non-flying bicylist. I can live with that. Especially since I got Esmerelda back. People think flying bikes just fly themselves, but as all actual flying bicylists know, it's just a state of mind.

So I had a good time showing it to @Crystal Rosethorn. Such a relief to have it back!

Any luck finding your backpack, @Selena? I didn't notice any Strange Patterns™ anywhere I'm afraid.

I went to Apple Orchards for a break from studying,to watch the flying bikes. It was awesome! One boy(i forget his name) had one with black and red tail fins,one on the bottom and two on the top,or something along those lines. He let me sit on it,and showed me how he flips the tail fins at falling point for an extra speed boost. Pretty exciting stuff. I of course don't have the money,nor the patience or time to do so,so i don't think i'll be joining the flying bike hype any time soon. Anyways Good Day and Good Luck!

Last club meeting I accidentally left my back pack in the back corner of the field outside. It's black with Strange Patterns™ and I would vary much like to have it back fairly quickly. It would be the utmost inconvenience to me if it remained missing. Many thanks.

Yeah my flying bike was stolen and it's totally lame because I loved that flying bike. I left it outside of Alderwood Hall and like a dummy didn't lock it and just ran in for a minute but it was snatched.

It's red, with one big black wing on top and a small black wing on the bottom with knobby turbidity tires and straight handlebars and a Cirrus frame.

If anybody sees it please please please let me know!!!
