Every time I make it out to the beaches of Southern California, I can’t help but notice all the people walking, running, or rolling along the sidewalk. There are lots of people at the beach, but it seems like most of the natives walk, bike, or skate down the wide sidewalk in front of the row of houses closest to the beach. And if those people cruising down the boulevard are riding a bike, chances are that it’s one of those two wheel cruisers.
The mens’ beach cruisers are the bicycle version of the chopper. With thick tires and wide handlebars they create a unique look for a two-wheeler for cruising along the beach or down the street of any city or town in the country. The options available on these cruiser bikes are the same as any other style of bike with one speed and multi speed models. The coolest looking models are without a doubt the lowriders and choppers. There are even beach cruisers for kids.
My next bike is definitely going to be a cruiser mostly because it has a cool look and a relaxed feel. I’m not going to be racing anywhere in a hurry, but I will be cruising there.
