I can't ride a bike and got car licence too late to have trikes on it, only option open to Me is quadbikes, just wondering how there viewed, are they "bikes" or cars without roofs?

Cheers

I don't mean any offence by this but many bikers see them as a pain in the arse. A lot of guys who ride them on the road do so like idiots. They're definitely not seen as bikes by the bikers in our area, they're best left on the farms where they belong. However, trikes are slightly more accepted by bikers especially the motorcycle based ones. If your over 21 and have a full car license you should be legaly entitled to ride a trike, which is why there seems to be more on the road.

Another option is go get your bike licence so your only option isn't Quads. 4 wheels does not qualify as a bike

As above, only people I've seen ride quads ride like total dicks.

Also quads negate all the positives of filtering etc, loads of time seems quads / trikes stuck in traffic.

Just learn to ride a 2 wheeled bike than quad trash

I worked with a guy who rode bikes in summer, a quad in winter.

I agree there are some idiots riding them, but not everyone rides them like that.
