I've been riding often this october, even though I needed lights the last week, it is getting darker earlier now.

Saturday's weather report is sunny with 16°C maximum temperature

Looks like a great day for mid autumn bike ride !

Who wants to come for a ride ?

Dammit sucked in again - I should have leaned by now. But really, bike, it has an engine you know.

You guys ride bicycles or cycles .

well in my bike, the engine is me you know....

I'd be up for a ride. When and where do you have in mind?

I'll go from 2pm, we could meet at the rentenanstalt Tram stop in enge?

Yes, see you there, perhaps 5 minutes late though.

Sorry, the name "bike" is reserved for the original, pedal-powered version.

A bicycle without an engine was the original version, so it gets to use the shortened name "bike." Strapping a motor onto a bike came later, and so has the modified name "motorbike" - if you want to shorten it then you could say "moto".

Just to be inconsistent, I will grant you that a "biker" is someone who rides a motorbike and not a bicycle, the latter are always "cyclists".
