Probably the time I fell off my bike in traffic and only didn't die due to the quick wittedness and good brakes of a couple of car drivers
They has affected my out look very little, I am possibly a bit more careful since then.

Alt: You.

Was it a motorbike?

Nope.
Motorbikes are for gayers who need engines, push-bike all the way baby.

I do not know.
I don't really think anyone younger than my parents generation used the term, I use it as a conscious anachronism and also because if you say bike people seem to assume motorbike for some reason.

In probably very late and boring post
I would assume that push bike comes from the very early ones that you "pushed" along with your feet?

Only a guess though... but seeing as noone will read this far down in a thread that is now ignored, it doesnt matter
