Anybody mountain bike on here?

If so where do you go/what do you ride?

Just come back from 37 miles in the Yorkshires dales,we had sun/sleet/rain/snow/wind all in one afternoon,don't you just love the countryside:cool:

Was a lot better weather in the pub later, post ride and a hell of a lot warmer!

I used to! I had a Cannondale 800 something about 10 years ago, when they were the in thing and expensive!

I hit a car that pulled out on me, one messed up bike!

Im looking to commute next month, back roads, lanes so im going to get another soon!

Give us a shout if you do, always think it's good practice to keep up the balance and reaction times ,tried out my new Gary Fisher today,a new light bike dosn't make the hills any less steeper!

Worse thing was the bloke setting the pace was well into his 40's. put the rest of us youngsters(s) to shame:confused:

I have a rather nice Marin tucked away in the garage with Rock Shox, clip less pedals and a few other nice bits and bobs.

Now if I could only find my shoes that go with the pedals, I might just ride it... lord knows I need the exercise!!!
