I think if I lived somewhere with nice mountain bike trails I could almost not want to ride my other bikes. The fun per effort ratio completely blows away pavement riding. And I'd rather dodge trees than cars any day. I think the only negative thing I can think of about mountain biking is mud. And sand. But as long as there is not too much sand I won't complain.

I need to get out more. Been to busy to rude as much as I want too for a couple weeks. Still getting out a few times a week and got in few nice mountain bike rides. But nowhere near the mileage I would like. My boy took a nice spill on the rail trail last week and skinned up his knee, arm and shoulder. Didn't seem to bother him much. Until we got to this little connector trail that is a about a hundred feet of bumpy twisty gravel, and he chose to walk the bike. So he must have bruised his confidence a little too. Just over a month until we are riding across the state. As soon as school is out we will be doing early morning rides almost every day to get ready.

Maybe I'm a weirdo, but I only trail ride once or twice a year, tops. I think the road/city is more fun.

Also, I hardly ever have the time for all day riding because I have to go make dinner for the family. So that's probably some of it.

When I say mountain biking is more fun I'm picturing hauling ass up and down hills, bumps, jumps, berms, roots and so on. Like rays bike park but more trees, mosquitoes and dirt.

I bike at a pretty leisurely pace. I can't safely haul ass through Cleveland traffic though, some of these fuckers would straight run me over and not look back.

Yeah, I bike to places, so it's inevitable. Man, if we had park trails that went to stores that would be rad! But also I wish drivers here were more careful.
