That would be a great idea. I mean, I am more than twice as fast on a bike than by foot and I can drive more than 10 times as far. Just imagine what Flash could accomplish with a bike
I would assume the rubber and maybe even medal would all melt. Not to mention how hard it would be to control.
Well, in the tv series his shoes start burning if he doesn’t use his specific flash shoes. So surely he needs a special bike.
About handling you might be right, but I can’t image running at speeds faster than sound without crashing into everything either

He has a suit that doesn’t melt to his skin. If his people can make a costume, they can make a bike …. Trying to imagine the precision you’d need on those bearings
I was under the impression he was surrounded by the speed force which drops certain characteristics of physics. Things like friction from wind don't apply to him and I'd guess his suit too?

It would probably depends on what you’re watching or reading. It was a big deal in the show for him to destroy his clothes at the start and then start labs built him the suit that could take it
That's fair, when it comes to anything super hero it basically comes down to what source you want to pull from
Think about doing an escort quest where the NPC walks at 25% your speed and how irritating it is to have to keep waiting for them. Now imagine the NPC moves at %0.0025 or your speed instead. If he ever wants to travel with any companions, this might be more to protect his sanity than anything.
He could just pick up the npc. Not like he's never been shown to accelerate mere mortal fleshbags to relativistic speeds almost instantaneously.
I don't read comics but I've hung out with enough comic nerds to pick up secondhand that the speed force and power cosmic are just straight bullshit. They do whatever. Think you found a problem or plot hole? Nah, magical powers specifically address that. Because magic.
In the comic he loses his/the speedforce. Could imagine it was from that, but deep down I know it was just a toy companytrying to sell parents junky toys.
I dunno. I think this is good for Flash. To paraphrase SolidJJ:
Flash: So, to you, I'm moving faster than the speed of sound, circling the globe. But to me, that's walking. Just. Walking. For like a year.
I'm not understanding. So for the Flash, he's bored of walking and driving a motorcycle is much more entertaining?
For when he needs to go slower.
Like Eskimos use refrigerators to keep their food from freezing.
You reminded me that when I was 6 I had a dream where Superman showed me his new car.
(Not a car for Clark Kent, a SuperMobile.)
I've seen the super speed running effect in the movie. The bike is slower, but at least the other superheroes won't take the piss when he uses it.
