# The Minhag is not to ride a bike on [[Shabbat]]. <ref>Or Letzion (vol 2, chap 42, note 1), Sh"t Yabia Omer 10:54(12), Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]], vol 5, pg 56). The Ben Ish Chai in Rav Pealim 1:25 permits it but some say that later on he retracted from that ruling. (Sh"t Yechave Daat 2:48). [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/displayRead.asp?readID=2337 Rabbi Mansour on dailyhalacha.com] discusses and clarifies that Rav Ovadyah Yosef's opinion on this topic is that it is not proper to ride bikes on [[Shabbat]].
{{Bike on Shabbat}}
* '''Ashkenazi Poskim:''' [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14506&st=&pgnum=154 Tzitz Eliezer (7:30:1)]- Riding a bike on [[Shabbat]] is an issue of [[Uvda DeChol]].
* [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=22674&st=&pgnum=90&hilite= Rav Azriel Hildesheimer (siman 49)] - Riding a bike on [[Shabbat]] is an issue of [[Choresh]].
* Rav Yitzchak Schmelkish (Tshuvos Beis Yitzchak)- the gezerah against riding an animal was a broad gezerah against all transportation on [[shabbos]].
* [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14667&st=&pgnum=65 Chasam Sofer (6:97)] - Riding a train is a violation of “shabbason.”
* '''Sephardi Poskim:''' The [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=1401&st=&pgnum=56 Ben Ish Chai (Rav Poalim 1:25)] says it's muttar.
* [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=9085&st=&pgnum=310&hilite= Kaf HaChaim (5:404:8)] quotes the Ben Ish Chai, but then he says the minhag is not to ride bikes and he brings many reasons why (it might break and he’ll come to fix it, he might ride outside the [[techum]], he might get to a hill where he’ll need to get off and carry the bike.)
* The [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=961&st=&pgnum=51 Yaskil Avdi (OC 3:12:5:4)] says it's assur because it might break and you might come to fix it like musical instruments. And he claims the Ben ish chai was chozer. There is a big discussion as to what the Ben ish chai actually held.
* Rav Ovadiah Yosef (Yabia Omer 10 OC 54:12, and 55:2) doesn't think Ben Ish Chai changed his mind and he argues with yaskil avdi because we can't invent gzeiros nowadays. But he concludes that it’s proper to be stringent not to ride a bike on [[shabbos]]. Rav Matzliach Mazuz (Sh"t Ish Matzliach OC 1:35) agrees that it should not be permitted to ride a bike on Shabbat or Yom Tov, even in a place with an eruv.</ref>
