Biking when pregnant

[anniec]

Any views/experiences about biking when pregnant?

Other than the fact the leathers get a bit tight round the middle...

Well, I'll never have that problem


IMO its down to personal choice, and as long as the lady feels comfortable and in control then go for it, but expect to be frowned upon by the majority.

suppose its personal choice but as you asked if i would say its a no from me

If you ride a sporty bike the your bump might get in the way of tank. If you have a cruiser then it won't matter!

Its a NO from me, just not enough protection in the event of a stupid act

i like to do what ever i want and try not to tell others what to do BUT you are the keeper of another life and its your responability to try and protect that life.

its rarely your fault if an accident happens so it wont matter how carfull you try to be.

I agree what your saying here, but if a pregnant women allows herself to be a passenger in any vehicle is she not giving responsibility to her and her unborn child to the person operating that vehicle?
Would she be protecting that child by allowing herself to be driven around by another person?

Or is it just that society deems bikes to be less safer than four wheeled vehicles?

Def personal choice.

Only thing to consider is would you blame yourself for riding if something did happen.
