Swain's First Bike Ride is the debut studio album by the Berkeley, California-based punk rock band Fifteen. It was originally released on vinyl in 1991 through Lookout Records with the catalog number LK 040. The songs generally follow a metallic guitar and chorus vocals style which was phased out in later albums. The album also has quite a few love songs (including "C#(tion)", which was covered by Green Day, and "Sweet Valentine"), something that was also phased out by later albums. The album's CD edition, released on February 10, 1992, contains the band's self-titled EP from the previous year as bonus tracks.
