In Scategories should "sport bike" be acceptable for 'ways to get from here to there'?

Question

we play all the time in class and someone is trying to say that sport bike is acceptable for "s" and "ways to get from here to there"

we make fun of her for using the term sport bike and tell her that it doesn't count...

she setnt me a wiki link to sport bike, but it's still weird and dumb

so, are we wrong to deny her of her point, or is sport bike unacceptable?

Answer 1

A "sports bike" is a recognizable form of transport, distinct from a tandem bicycle or a Moulton bicycle.  I see no reason to reject it.

Answer 2

I guess a good way to put it is, would you have accepted "sports car" as an answer? In both cases, it is more than just a random adjective on the word but an actual class of bike or car. Sport bike might seem weird and dumb if you aren't familiar with bikes, but it looks like it is a recognized class of bike.

Answer 3

No, you're right. "sports" in this case is an adjective- it describes bike, which, by the way  begins with B!

That's like if the category were animals and the letter was "P" and you put purple horse...That doesn't count.
