I’m working on a puzzle and got stuck on the clue like a bicycle or a horse crossword. I’ve seen a couple of possible answers but nothing seems to fit the grid I’m working with. It’s starting to slow down the whole solve.

Hey! I think the answer they’re looking for is “pedal-powered” if it’s a long entry, or sometimes “ridden” depending on your grid. Bicycles are pedaled and horses are ridden, so check how many letters your grid needs.

Lol, I spent 10 minutes thinking about this too. I was like, “Does it mean they both can fall if you’re bad at it?” Maybe “mounted” works if it fits.
