Hello,
Just signed up as this looks like a fun forum. Been riding mountain bike since '88. Started racing mtb on a dare in '00 shifted focus to endurance mtb and never looked back. I enjoy the feeling of just finishing those 100 milers. Bought a road bike last year after 15 years of being a dirt snob. Now I'm turning into a road weenie that still rides dirt. The tactics and energy management of road racing is a whole different game. Those guys really try to put the hurt on versus the long time trialing slog of endurance mtb.
Any way, I'm 50yrs., live in Co. Race with a team. A cycling junkie that can't think of much that I enjoy more.
