Definition
骑车 is a separable verb (离合词): you can insert a number, duration, or other modifier between the two syllables — for example, 骑一次车 ('ride a bike once') or 骑了两个小时的车 ('rode a bike for two hours'). It already contains the object 车, so you cannot put another direct object after it; instead, specify time, frequency, or manner in the middle or before the verb.
v.o.
to ride a bicycle / to cycle
Examples
- 骑车。Wǒ měitiān qí chē shàngbān.I cycle to work every day.

- 骑车。Zhōumò wǒmen xǐhuan yìqǐ qí chē.On weekends we enjoy cycling together.
