I have been using a bike for years. If you have a reasonable path or logging road or such it is a great way to get to your stand. I built a small cart to pull behind the bike if I need to carry a climber in. I have a basket over the rear wheel to carry my junk with and a gun rack attached to it. The one thing I have found that is very important is a good headlight on the bike. You are going to be going at least one way in darkness and all it takes is a stick or a rock or such to throw a loaded bike. If it works for me it should work for just about anyone. I am 79 years old and still using one.
