Songs for Cruising Customer Review: Great Record
I like bite your tongue more as it is more consistant. While there are no songs that I hate, some are better than others. Catch 22 is one of the most classic songs ever written. Also Scotts song is a great catchy tune sung by the drummer. While it is not that consistant as bite your tongue in songwriting, it is a highly recommended album.
Customer Review: Not too original, but very satisfying
These guys are a pop punk band that sounds like Blink 182 meets Nofx, so if you hate those two bands you will mostly likely not want this album. Even though these guys sound like a mix of the two, they do not have the over poppy radio punk sound of Blink 182. This album is solid all of the way through, and features mostly songs about past girlfriends and such. My personal favorite song on the album is a political song about a police raid on a Propagandhi show in Denver.
Art of Cruising Men Customer Review: Sorry, but the film is not worth seeing
Got the chance to see the film and unfortunately never saw anything worth remembering. It is a loose attempt to be too techy and informative but it fails on both counts. Unfortunately, this isn’t the type of film you would want to waste your 70 mins with even if you have so much to spare. I’d rather watch BAMBI and be entertained.
Customer Review: Summary
The Art of Cruising Men is a wonderfully amusing, irreverent look at the lengths many gay men go to in order to make sexual contact with one another. Follow the route from first eye contact to orgasm, from prehistoric times through the forbidden worlds of bathrooms and the clubs and bars of the 1990s. Explicit nudity is featured. From the creator of Max Headroom, one of the most celebrated television achievements of the eighties, comes a whole new style of video. 70 min.

Ladies’ Schwinn 26″ Roxie Cruiser Customer Review: Adorable and affordable
I just purchased this bike, and I love it.
Pros: “hey nice bike!”. Comfortable seat, good white and pink color contrast, handles nicely, easy to shift, nice wide tires.
Great for city and neighborhood riding.
Cons: (what I can tell so far) It is noisy. Most gears I’ve tried it in squawk at me with the slightest bump or turn. Also, it seems to be better suited for a shorter person. I’m 5′ 11″ and I find it kind of uncomfortable to have the handlebars come in so close to me. Long arms don’t need long handlebars.
Otherwise it’s great. Don’t go mountain biking with it (like the other reviewer said), just “cruise” around town with it.
Customer Review: Bike Fit
I am an avid mountain biker and am looking for another city/cruiser bike. After reading some of the reviews, I cannot help but comment as it sounds like some ladies are not happy with the fits of their bikes, assembly, etc. There even seems to be someone dinging the bike (and its maker) for a flat tire issue …? These are common issues for those new to bikes and biking.
** Fit: Everyone fits a bike differently. Bikes also vary in fit from brand to brand. My second mountain bike is a Haro I bought new … It was $2,700. I can spend the same $2,700 (+/-) for a Specialized or Ellsworth and not like its fit. It has nothing to do with the model or the brand; those are fabulous makes of bike. It has to do with the fact that my body fits a Haro 16″ bike.
Before buying a bike on Amazon (or any other online retailer), go look at - and test ride! - as many bikes as you can. Record the make and model and buy it off Amazon or whoever you get the best price from. Just because your friend is the same hight you are does NOT mean you will be comfortable on the same size (or make) bike she is. Your torso, legs, arms, etc., might be shorter/longer …
** Assembly: Try to put it together. If you are successful, take it to your local bike shop and have them give it a once over. This will take care of any chain drag, shifting, etc., problems you might have. If you are not successful in putting it together, take it to your bike shop and have them do it for you. NOTE: All new bikes “settle in” after a couple weeks of steady riding. Chains stretch, things loosen, shift, etc. It will need a little fine tuning after you’ve ridden for a while.
** Flat tires … (?) OK … Every biker on the planet has flat tires from time to time. I went 3 years without a one; I’ve had two in the past year and count myself lucky: One was on singletrack (mountainous cross-country trail riding over roots, etc) and just got my second yesterday on a ride on dirt and road. Glass, roots, pokey things happen. Your tires are not armour plated. Always carry an extra tube, repair kit, CO2 pump, and know how to use them. That’s biking 101 and (most likey) has nothing to do with the manufacturer. Most bike shops offer basic bike maintenance classes - take one.
** The bike/cost. Bikes are no different than a car. You get what you pay for. Don’t expect a $100 bike to ride (or hold up) like a $2,000 bike. If you are just cruising a couple times in the summer, $100 will suit you fine as an entry bike. Step up to someting better when and if it makes sense to you, but don’t ding the bike (or its maker) for providing you with cheap, fun, healthy entertainment for $100 when it doesn’t ride like a bike costing 10-50 times that.
Schwinn is a good brand. If this bike fits you well (determined by test ride), then you will probably have many years of cruising enjoyment on it.
(I am rating this bike a 3-star because I can’t post this w/o a rating. I don’t want to over or under rate it, so am striking the middle - I don’t own it, so won’t officially rate it)
