I know you are not supposed to ride on the sidewalk if no one's there. But if you admire the concrete and want to keep your bicycle from walking all by itself, I would make sure to be cautious of that object, unavoidable. Sometimes you need to go quick and have a be nice to car day. It takes balance to navigate the sidewalk. I've gone into the woods too. I wash the $125-$150ish dollar American made bike a few times. No hose? Where to park the thing. Closer than the valet. It's made of Aluminum, the frame. Nice welds. Beads. Not the occasional slop. I'm not a welder, but chromoly has a durability, that aluminum can't quite differentiate from. On a nice day I can get upwards of 10 miles. Depending on the depth of the snow. Any direction except through, where can't I get a bicycle is probably a better question to ask. The distant moon, what's a good one? The smooth one I favor. I like Europa because it's a potential habitat. But I wouldn't want to ride my bicycle there. But maybe you will someday.
If I get a flat tire on Europa it will take me awhile to fix a flat tire, repaired, but I'm obviously working on it all by myself. To repair a tire. You need different methods than Earth. I would suggest sending a replica with a tire already flat. And leave the one I know how to repair on Earth. I used to travel and repair bicycles. To the Big box stores for not enough money, but it was a lesson in how to build them fast.
They are slightly more complicated these days. But it is one of my preferred ways to travel. You know the wind. Winter, spring, summer, fall. I will get back on the saddle again to deliver myself to some necessity. Groceries are a thing, carrying them on the handlebars. And sometimes the bag tears. So you need to remember the other grocery bag you remembered to remember..
Antiquated but not necessarily something I would want to send to Europa.
I believe there is life there. Most likely but I don't think I could send my robot there today to repair the flat. NASA or Space Force or...The robot if doesn't have the ability at the moment to run a tire iron around the rim, remove the inner tube, and replace it with a new one. Apply a patch to the old inner tube with sandpaper (Art) and the sticker/patch. A tire pump. Shraeder or Presta, are the common ones. Pump it up to the psi. And put the rim/wheel back on the fork or rear triangle. I suggest quick release, though nuts slow things down.
But I could send a song there with less effort.
At approximately 800 mph. Sound barrier.
Jupiter and a few others.
Utah.
