Argh! Carrying an exercise bike up the stairs is a pain!

Those things are heavier than any bicycle has any right to be, with the added nuisance of when you go to shift its weight a little, and you accidentally grab a peddle, and then the whole thing's all over the place and you're countering like crazy trying (1) not to fall off the stairs and (2) not to destroy the walls, floor or railing!

Good exercise, though.

 

At least It'll help you forget about your sexual frustration.

You sure like making threads, dontcha?

 

Next time tie a rope/cable around some part of it and pull/slide it up.

Yeah, but that's mainly because one of the handles was digging into my crotch! Ouch! That was like 100 pounds digging into a most sensitive spot!

I stick to three a day. Mostly I like seeing which topics elicit the most responses, and which the most interesting responses.

Doesn't work. I could rig up a ramp or something, but it's an odd enough shape, and heavy enough, that it scratches wood steps and tears carpet if dragged, plus my stairs have little overhangs that it catches on. In the end, cost/benefit analysis shows that the time and effort saved by simply carrying it is worth the temporary discomfort.

 

umm... nah too easy.

yeah, carrying exercise bikes is a real pain.

I also just carried it downstairs a few weeks ago, but now my mom has decided no, she actually likes it better upstairs.

I don't bicycle in the house.

 

What?! Everyone bicycles in the house, you havn't lived!

Worth risking a simple little slip?

 

Build a makeshift ramp outta some wood.

 

Worth risking a simple little slip?

I could slip going up the stairs while not carrying a bike, too. And I think the risk of me slipping and dying on the stairs with a bike are substantially less than the risk of me getting in a fatal car crash, yet I have to drive on a more-than-daily basis. We all take risks.

 

What about those bubbleboys?

There are worse burdens you could be carrying.
