I'm in. Everytime I dust off my MTB I rejoice what a great workout it is, and not just for the legs and cardio. Like..if you thought you are in good biking shape, go ride a challenging MTB trail, yikes! Reality!

No crashes here, but I have no issue with taking it slow and careful. Bombing rock gardens is suicide at my age. But spinning up tough grades, slicing though the bends dowhill, busting out to an unexpected vista, coming home all dirty and worn-out... magnificent day. Even if you walk a couple of hills, no biggy..it just means there is always room for growth.

A light hardtail with a thudbuster, a fine machine.
