Just tell her to man up and grow some balls. Damn hippies.

And Rod I'm the same. I was in a coma thanks to riding and I still ride now!

Well if she is a Hippie, tell here that loads of classic Hippies from way back when owned Minis too.

Incomprehensible really, considering he adores mountain biking and almost killed himself on one 18 months ago on the road (then got himself a bigger chainring to go faster ).

When it comes to Push bikes, If you Don't hurt yourself your not going fast enough!!

So far i've Broken my cheek bone in 3 places,2 ribs,Cracked my Sternum, Bruised my Heart, Yes i still ride a bike!

maybe it time to put the stabilisers back on

go buy a old metro

then she will feel safer with you in the mini

My mum used to have one of those, it was awful the mini feels sooooo much more stable and safe

Safer? The Metro/Rover 100 (an old 1980's design) scored only 1 star out of 5 in 1997 for the Euro NCAP test which finally killed off its sales and production was ended soon after.................................video below

I think she is great. Just think about how lucky you are.

You have someone to spring for a roll cage, racing seats, harnesses, fire extinguisher, big brakes, and wide tires.

all im saying is i wouldnt like to have another crash in a mini

What speed was that at? anyone hurt?

that was hitting the passenger door of a stationary focus at about 25mph.

no serious injuries, but i dont sleep much since with neck problems i also hit my chest on the steering wheel as the seatbelt didnt really react. oh and cut my leg on something too
