Ride on a bike/ride a bike
Hello everybody,
Is there any difference betwen "ride on a bike" and "ride a bike"?
I have heard someone (non-English native) saying that "ride on a bike" is to get on a bike drived by someone else, and that "ride a bike" is to drive a bike on one's own. Is this correct?
If this opinion is right, we can say "my hobby is riding a bike," but "my hobby is riding on a bike" is a little bit wierd..
Thank you in advance,
