I had two chances of running him over in the space of 5 mins and missed both times

I have heard a fair few celebs ride but dont advertise the fact as it means they can go out with a lid on and not be recognised / papped etc.

You see him about on it in the papers, but it could well be a set up job.

Billy Idol rides, IIRC he was nearly wiped out a while back.

Locally, Ian Paisely Jr rides a bike, Darren Clarke the golf boyo had a big trike of some sort.
