How to Ride a Bike With Two People

Have you ever been in a situation where two people are coming back from the same place, but only one person has a bike? Well if you have, it's a struggle because normally the person without a bike wants to ride one too. Here is a simple...

Method 1 of 2:

Sitting on the seat and the center bar

    Have the more experienced cyclist mount first. In preparing to go, the first person should hold the handlebars firmly and stand, both feet flat on the ground, while the other person mounts.

    The other person should then sit down on the seat and put their feet on the rear axles while holding onto the first person. It is much easier if the person in front has a backpack.

    The person in front should put their foot on the pedal and gently take off. This is difficult, but you have to keep the bike as straight up and down as possible, or else the takeoff is nearly impossible.

    The person in front should stand up while pedaling, but if their legs get tired, and they're riding a man's style bicycle, they can sit on the tube, but they can't sit directly on it. It hurts. They have to sit on one side of that particular body part.
Method 2 of 2:

Sitting on the handlebars
